As online scams evolve and become more sophisticated, big businesses continue to develop new scam detection (https://www.androidauthority.com/pixel-scam-detection-tested-3501664/) methods. Google has already rolled out a new AI-powered scam detection system to its Pixel phones, and there are now indications that it is exploring the use of AI to tackle this issue in its Chrome browser.
