AI chatbots are giving out people’s real phone numbers
Source: MIT Technology Review AI · Category: AI Risk & Safety
Google's generative AI has leaked real phone numbers through chatbot responses, redirecting callers and creating privacy violations. This vendor error exposes enterprise risk: AI systems trained on internet data may inadvertently expose PII in retrieval-augmented workflows. Assess internal AI tools for information leakage; include data sanitization requirements in vendor security reviews.
