AI Is Here (And It’s Already Messing with Your Inbox, Calls, and Wi-Fi)

Your Email Filters? All AI.
Gmail, Outlook, and iCloud Mail all use machine learning to sort your inbox. It’s what decides if your invoice ends up in spam or if Grandma’s forwarded chain letter goes to “Promotions.” It’s mostly helpful… until it hides something important.
Robocalls Got Smarter
Spam calls used to be easy to spot. Now? AI voice cloning and auto-response systems are making scammers sound real. They might even know your name. Never trust a caller just because they sound human.
Smart Homes Are Making Dumb Assumptions
Voice assistants and smart thermostats learn from your habits — which is great until they start changing settings without asking. Suddenly the lights dim when you’re just trying to eat a sandwich.

Double-check your filters (especially if you’re missing emails).
Get a good spam blocker for your phone. Nomorobo and Robokiller both use AI to fight AI.
Audit your smart home settings. Sometimes “learning” just means “guessing wrong.”
Don’t click AI-generated popups or scammy emails. When in doubt, we can take a look.
