Google DeepMind and Singapore are collaborating on a system that uses compact AI models on phones to detect conversational scam patterns. The approach processes data locally on the device, which means private messages do not need to be sent to an external server for analysis.

Local processing is considered promising for security applications where privacy is a priority. However, the real-world performance of the system still needs to be evaluated. Key factors that require assessment include overall effectiveness, the rate of false alarms, and how widely the technology can be made available.
