Artificial Intelligence (AI), though a boon for many sectors, has a darker side that is becoming increasingly evident. Instances of misuse are on the rise, leading to devastating consequences for individuals and corporations alike.
One of the most alarming misuses of AI technology in recent years is the creation of deepfakes. These manipulated videos or images, often used to humiliate and harass women, have created a storm of ethical and legal issues.
AI has also been weaponized to carry out complex and intricate cyber-attacks. Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, spear phishing attacks, and swarm attacks are becoming more sophisticated and challenging to thwart, thanks to the misuse of AI.

Recently, companies like Samsung have discovered instances of misuse when employees uploaded sensitive code to ChatGPT.

Even established companies like JPMorgan and Amazon have restricted the use of ChatGPT due to similar security concerns.
Despite the restrictions, these companies are looking for ways to safely harness the power of generative AI to boost productivity and efficiency.
In conclusion, with the increasing integration of AI into our lives, it is imperative to be aware of its potential misuses. As we continue to benefit from AI's advantages, it is equally important to evolve our strategies to guard against its misuse, ensuring the protection of individuals and corporations.
