An AI avatar is a digital representation of a person, powered by artificial intelligence. These avatars can mimic human expressions, voice, and actions, making them appear lifelike and interactive. In cybersecurity, AI avatars can be used for both legitimate and malicious purposes. For example, they may enhance user experience in virtual environments or customer service. However, they also pose risks such as identity theft, social engineering, and deepfake scams, where attackers use AI avatars to impersonate real individuals. Understanding AI avatars is crucial for recognizing new threats and developing strategies to protect personal and organizational security.
