The FBI's 2025 IC3 report logged $20.9B in losses, including $893M directly attributed to AI-enabled fraud and $797M in government-impersonation scams. Print one of these for every workstation. The reflexes that work are mechanical, not vigilant.
Voice cloning fires the brain's familiar-voice trust signal in under 200ms, before conscious thought can engage. The callback rule inserts a mechanical step that runs after the trust signal has fired but before money moves.
Business email compromise scams with confirmed AI components generated more than $30M in 2025 reported losses. Compromised email accounts can produce convincing wire requests; a five-minute phone call to the saved contact number stops most of them.
Government-impersonation scam complaints rose from ~17,300 in 2024 to over 32,400 in 2025, with reported losses jumping from $405M to $797M (FBI IC3 report). The structural fix: government agencies do not initiate calls demanding immediate payment.
