AFAIAA is a phrase regularly used when the speaker may later want to distance themselves from what was said. Of note, AFAIAA may also be written as AFAIA (As Far As I'm Aware).

An Academic Look at AFAIAA

AFAIAA is an initialism abbreviation. Technically, this means it is pronounced using its individual letters (i.e., Aay Eff Aay Eye Aay Aay), but as this is harder to say than "As far as I am aware," it is not often uttered using its letters. In other words, the abbreviation AFAIAA is for efficiency in writing and not efficiency in speech.
