### Stay Safe from AI-Powered Online Scams: Essential Google Tips



The rapid rise of AI-powered scams means staying vigilant online is more important than ever. Here are expert-approved safety tips to help you protect your digital life from cybercriminals leveraging artificial intelligence:

#### Actionable Safety Advice

- Enable Google's scam detection features in Gmail and Messages for automatic warnings about suspicious emails and texts[2].
- Activate two-step verification on all accounts for extra security[1].
- Only download apps from official stores such as Google Play, and double-check app details before installing to avoid fake AI applications like counterfeits of ChatGPT or Gemini[1][3].
- Watch for odd language, misspellings, or unusual formatting in emails, messages, or website notifications — these are common warning signs of a scam[5][4].
- Never share sensitive information (OTP, PIN, passwords, banking details) with anyone, especially if contacted unexpectedly, even if they claim to be from your bank or a company[6][7].
- If something seems suspicious (e.g., job offers, delivery alerts, requests for urgent action), pause and verify the sender through official channels[1][4].
- Use Google Play Protect and Chrome's Enhanced Safe Browsing to spot and block unsafe apps and websites automatically[3].
- Avoid downloading free VPN apps or tools unless they're from official, trusted sources to avoid potential malware threats[1].
- Report scams or suspected fraudulent activity using Google's built-in reporting options in Maps, Gmail, and other services, and notify the relevant authorities[1].
- Stay informed about new scam tactics — regularly check Google's security updates for the latest information on emerging threats[2].

#### Why It Matters

- Hackers are now using AI to automate fake websites, phishing messages, and calls, making scams more convincing and harder to spot[1][2].
- Google's AI-driven protections can analyze messages in real time, flag risks, and help prevent data theft — but human vigilance is still key[2][3].
- Taking these steps minimizes your risk and helps create a safer online environment for everyone[4].

Stay alert, protect your data, and help spread awareness!

🧠 Tutorial: “Master SQL Using Perplexity AI — From Beginner to Pro” by Ajay Architect

⏱ Tutorial Duration: 15–30 minutes approximate 

💡 Goal:  Teach how to use AI tools like Perplexity, ChatGPT or Gemini to write, optimize, and analyze SQL queries — without manual coding.


🔹 1. Understanding the Concept: SQL + AI

Traditional SQL writing involves:

SELECT customer_name, SUM(amount)   FROM orders  WHERE order_date >= '2025-01-01'  GROUP BY customer_name  ORDER BY SUM(amount) DESC;  

With AI tools, you can simply say:

🗣️ "Show me the top 10 customers by total purchase value since January 2025."

AI converts this natural language into the above SQL automatically.

AI Advantage: You save hours of manual query building, debugging, and syntax lookup.


🔹 2. How to Use AI for SQL Generation

Example 1: Basic Data Extraction

🗣️ Prompt to AI:

Write an SQL query to list all employees from the "Sales" department earning more than ₹70,000 per month.

🧩 AI Output:

SELECT name, department, salary  FROM employees  WHERE department = 'Sales'    AND salary > 70000;  

You can even ask AI to:

Convert this query for PostgreSQL / MySQL / BigQuery.


🔹 3. AI for Database Design

AI can also design database schemas for you.

🗣️ Prompt:

Design a database for an e-commerce company with tables for customers, products, and orders.

🧩 AI Output:

CREATE TABLE customers (      customer_id INT PRIMARY KEY,      name VARCHAR(100),      email VARCHAR(100),      city VARCHAR(50)  );    CREATE TABLE products (      product_id INT PRIMARY KEY,      name VARCHAR(100),      category VARCHAR(50),      price DECIMAL(10,2)  );    CREATE TABLE orders (      order_id INT PRIMARY KEY,      customer_id INT,      product_id INT,      order_date DATE,      quantity INT,      FOREIGN KEY (customer_id) REFERENCES customers(customer_id),      FOREIGN KEY (product_id) REFERENCES products(product_id)  );  

AI saves hours by creating entire schema structures instantly.


🔹 4. Query Optimization Using AI

Example:

🗣️ Prompt:

Optimize this query for faster performance.

SELECT * FROM orders WHERE customer_id IN (SELECT customer_id FROM customers WHERE city = 'Pune');  

🧩 AI Suggestion:

SELECT o.*  FROM orders o  JOIN customers c ON o.customer_id = c.customer_id  WHERE c.city = 'Pune';  

✅ AI explains: "JOINs are generally faster than subqueries."


🔹 5. Debug SQL Errors Using AI

🗣️ Prompt:

Fix this query:

SELECT name, salary FROM employee WHERE salary => 50000;  

🧩 AI Correction:

SELECT name, salary FROM employee WHERE salary >= 50000;  

AI instantly spots syntax and logic errors.


🔹 6. AI-Powered Data Insights

Once you've data in your database, ask:

🗣️ "Which city has the highest average sales in 2025?"

🧩 AI Output:

SELECT city, AVG(amount) AS avg_sales  FROM orders  WHERE YEAR(order_date) = 2025  GROUP BY city  ORDER BY avg_sales DESC  LIMIT 1;  

✅ Use this to automate reporting and dashboards.


🔹 7. AI for SQL Interview Prep

AI can simulate interview questions:

🗣️ "Ask me 5 SQL interview questions with answers for a Data Analyst role."

🧩 Example Output:

  1. What is a Primary Key?
    A column (or group of columns) that uniquely identifies each record in a table.

    CREATE TABLE students (id INT PRIMARY KEY, name VARCHAR(50));  
  2. Difference between INNER JOIN and LEFT JOIN

    • INNER JOIN returns matching rows.
    • LEFT JOIN returns all rows from the left table, plus matched rows from the right.

…and so on.


🔹 8. Building a Full AI + SQL Project

🧩 Example: Sales Dashboard

AI can generate:

  1. SQL to extract data from orders
  2. Python code (using Pandas + SQLAlchemy)
  3. Chart commands for visualization

🗣️ Prompt:

Build a small dashboard showing monthly revenue trends using SQL and Python.

✅ AI creates both SQL and Python scripts for you — saving 5+ hours of manual coding.


🔹 9. Tools You Can Use

  • Perplexity/ ChatGPT / Gemini / Claude — for SQL query generation and debugging
  • DigitalTechnologyArchitecture Blog — for live guided sessions
  • SQLBolt / Mode Analytics / DB Fiddle — to practice queries online
  • LeetCode SQL — to test optimization skills

🔹 10. Certification Path

I conduct workshops and at the end of such a workshop, you'll typically:

  • Complete hands-on exercises
  • Submit AI-generated SQL assignments
  • Get an industry-recognized certificate

🎓 Example:

"Certified SQL Using AI Professional – AI for SQL Developers"


✅ Summary - HOw SQL developer can save time using AI?

Task Traditional Time With AI
Write query 30 mins 1–2 mins
Design schema 2 hrs 5 mins
Optimize SQL 1 hr Instant
Debug errors 45 mins Seconds
Interview prep 3 hrs 15 mins

💡 Total time saved: 5 hours → 15 minutes
