The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has brought numerous benefits to humanity, ranging from applications in healthcare to enhancing everyday access to technology. However, alongside these advantages the misuse or malicious use of AI can lead to negative and at times serious consequences.
One of the most significant risks stemming from the malicious use of AI is the rapid spread of disinformation and fake news. This technology can be used to create manipulated videos or audios, which may then be used for personal attacks or fraud.
Moreover, there have been several instances in which the misuse of AI has led to human rights violations, breaches of privacy and intellectual property rights violations. Therefore, the sooner we understand these consequences, the better we’ll be at managing AI risks.
