Deepfake - AI的兩面效應

在2017年，Reddit這個知名的娛樂、社交及新聞網站中的一位名為"deepfakes"的會員發佈了一個由AI合成的名人偽造視頻，從此開始這種AI合成技術被稱為Deepfake。Deepfake一詞由"Deep Learning"和"Fake"組合而成，它是一種利用人工智能深度學習模型的技術。其原理是通過兩個神經網絡相互對抗，經過交替優化訓練後，生成的內容可以與真實人物難以區分。

最初，Deepfake技術主要用於宣傳和創意用途，並且在大多數影片中，作者都會聲明其影片是假的。此外，Deepfake甚至被用於彌補原本無法實現的事情，其中最著名的應用是在好萊塢電影《玩命關頭7》和《星際大戰》中的主角保羅·沃克。沃克在拍攝期間意外身亡，他的角色由他的弟弟代替完成，然後使用Deepfake技術連接電影中的場景，最終使電影完成並上映。

然而，儘管這種技術表面上看起來無害且有著良好的意圖，但它卻帶來了許多法律問題和信息風險。隨著技術的發展，任何人都可以輕易製作假影片或假聲音，其中可能包含不良意圖。由於Deepfake可以模仿任何人的外貌和聲音，這意味著任何人，尤其是知名人士，都可能被放置在虛假的情境中，從而造成名譽損害。此外，Deepfake技術可能被濫用於政治操作、偽造新聞和商業領域，這些都可能成為其負面影響的例子。而最接近普通人的可能就是由Deepfake技術產生的詐騙。

由Deepfake產生的詐騙主要可以分為三種。首先是電話詐騙，主要是模仿親朋好友的聲音，以此來騙取金錢和個人信息。詐騙者不僅模仿聲音，還能模仿說話的語調、斷句和口音。其次是視訊詐騙，由於Deepfake技術可以合成影片和語音，這意味著你可能會接到看似是你認識的人打來的視訊通話。第三種是恐嚇詐騙，主要是通過合成不雅照片或影片來恐嚇並勒索當事人。

在接下來難辦真相的網絡世界中，Deepfake只是當今科技社會所面臨的一個問題，法律和社會規範應該如何跟上這一步？如何解決其中涉及的著作權和倫理問題？這些都是需要進行深入討論和驗證的重要課題。

Leveraging OutSystems' rapid development strengths, our team achieves true Agile development, focusing intensely on user requirements. However, requirements are never fixed; they take time to refine within the project's cycle. If a developer simply builds projects based on the initial requirements, it leads to significant rework when those requirements are inevitably revised. This creates serious technical debt that can derail a project's schedule. To combat this, we strictly follow the OutSystems Canvas Design architecture to define each module's usage and content. We generalize logic into foundational modules, optimizing reusability and providing high adaptability when requirements change. This approach allows us to eliminate complicated dependencies—avoiding the deployment nightmares that plague monolithic systems. The Real-World Challenge: "The Spaghetti Monolith" We’ve all seen it. A project starts fast. The "Idea-to-App" time is record-breaking. But as sprints pass and requirements evolve, the "interest rate" on technical debt spikes. Suddenly, changing a simple UI element breaks a core business process because the logic was trapped inside the screen. Deployment becomes a "big bang" event where everything must go live at once because of circular dependencies. In our team, we don't just "code fast"; we architect for resilience. Our Solution: The 4 Layer Canvas Strategy We treat the 4 Layer Canvas not just as a suggestion, but as our structural imperative. Here is how we use it to handle volatile requirements:  Isolating Volatility (End-User Layer): We keep our User Interfaces (UI) and interaction logic in the End-User Layer. This layer is highly volatile—it changes constantly based on user feedback. By isolating it, we can redesign a "Customer Portal" without risking regressions in our core business rules.Stabilizing Business Logic (Core Layer): We abstract our entities and business rules into the Core Layer. This is the backbone of our factory. Whether the data is accessed by a Mobile App, a Web Portal, or a Timer, the validation rules remain consistent. This promotes the "Don't Repeat Yourself" (DRY) principle.Enabling Independent Deployments: By using Service Actions (Weak Dependencies) in our Core layer, we decouple our modules. This allows different squads to deploy changes independently without forcing a factory-wide refresh—a critical enabler for our CI/CD pipelines.The Governor: AI-Driven Architecture How do we ensure we stick to these rules when moving at Agile speeds? We don't just rely on manual code reviews; we use the AI Mentor System. This tool acts as our automated architect. It scans our entire factory to detect architectural violations that humans might miss, such as: Upward References: Preventing foundational libraries from depending on business logic.Side References: Ensuring our End-User apps don't tightly couple with one another.Circular Dependencies: Identifying the "deadly embrace" between modules that locks deployments.The AI Mentor System quantifies this debt, allowing us to pay it down proactively before it hinders our release velocity. Join a Team That Values Architecture In our Taiwan office, we believe that low-code doesn't mean "low-architecture." We are building resilient, composable enterprise ecosystems that can scale. If you are a developer who cares about structural integrity, clean code, and mastering the art of OutSystems architecture, we want to hear from you.

Does the following screenshot look familiar to you? Calendar invites that seem to appear out of nowhere in Microsoft Teams or Outlook, asking you to “review important information” or “resolve an account issue”?A phishing campaign has been found abusing Microsoft Teams calendar invites to deliver malicious links and files directly onto users’ calendars. These events often mimic Microsoft notifications, come from odd or external addresses, and include attachments such as .htm or .js files that, when opened, they can lead to credential theft, malware installation or even full remote access for the attacker.With phishing tactics evolving so quickly, ongoing awareness training remains critical and essential. Effective programs use realistic phishing simulations combined with targeted training to help employees recognize and report suspicious emails quickly, turning them into an active detection layer alongside your technical controls.At Ringus, we offer phishing simulation assessment services, with the following key features:💫Tailor-made realistic phishing templates💫Flexible campaign duration and cadence💫Comprehensive reporting and analytics with insights

Germany's Data Protection Conference just released comprehensive guidance on AI systems with Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) - a game-changer for organizations implementing AI governance under ISO 42001.Key Compliance Requirements:🔎Data Accuracy - Enhanced Large Language Model (LLM) responses but error accountability remains🔎Transparency - Improved document traceability within RAG knowledge bases🔎Purpose Limitation - Technical implementation through client/functional separation🔎Data Minimization - Strategic vector database content management🔎Data Subject Rights - Full rights coverage across prompts, outputs, and databases👉 Why This Matters for ISO 42001:RAG systems are becoming mainstream for internal chatbots and enterprise AI. The Data Protection Conference guidance directly aligns with ISO 42001's requirements for AI risk management, data governance, and algorithmic accountability.Organizations deploying RAG technology must now ensure their AI management systems comply with both German data protection standards and international ISO 42001 frameworks.Our cybersecurity and privacy consultation expertise helps organizations navigate these complex requirements, ensuring your RAG implementations meet regulatory standards while maximizing business value.
