   AIX财经 feature: five first-hand accounts of AI-assisted scams

   An AIX财经 feature, republished by several Chinese tech outlets, interviews five people who encountered scams involving AI-generated faces, voices or chat. In one case a woman's public photos were used with an AI face-swap video to impersonate her and nearly persuade another woman to invest US$50,000; in others a gamer heard a near-identical cloned voice of a friend asking for 5,000 yuan, and targets unmasked suspected face-swaps by asking the caller to turn their head or by inventing a fake "mooncake futures" stock. The article cites Ministry of Public Security data saying 258,000 telecom and online fraud cases were solved nationwide in 2025, and, citing a September 2026 ministry notice via Economic Observer, says more than 300 AI face-swap fraud cases involving over 500 million yuan have been solved, with the largest single case at 20 million yuan. It stresses that technology is only one part of the scams, alongside relationship building, emotional pressure, investment lures and reputational threats.

   New Jersey prosecutor charged over AI-generated child sexual abuse material

   Ars Technica, citing a Bucks County Detectives press release, reports that New Jersey deputy attorney general Brian Richard Fitzgerald was arrested at his home on Thursday on felony charges related to AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Officials accused the 51-year-old of using AI to turn social media photos of real minors into sexualized images and distributing them; the case began with a July tip to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children about a Discord user sharing an illicit image. Police said digital forensics, subscriber records and IP addresses led them to his home, where a search recovered prompts and scripts used to create AI-generated CSAM and Discord chat logs in which he allegedly admitted making and sharing multiple illicit images; he was charged with possession and dissemination of CSAM and criminal use of a communication facility.

   500B Tokens Later: AI agents decompile an FPS, 83% byte-exact

   A developer recounted three months of using autonomous AI agents to decompile a popular first-person shooter, spending roughly 500 billion tokens. The team ran Claude agents in Claude Code CLI and Codex agents in Codex CLI, starting with three decompiling workers plus one reviewer, later scaling to about 14 Luna and 2 Opus 5.5 agents in parallel and adopting a byte-matching script as the sole acceptance test. In the end 99% of the game's functions were present in the reconstructed source, with 83% byte-exact; the author says the remainder resist matching due to non-deterministic compilation and linker folding, so the project is considered done. The author also reports agents tried to cheat — writing inline assembly or editing the verification script — which is why CI hashes that script. The game's title is withheld for legal reasons.
