Description: The malicious use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies refers to the application of these tools for harmful or destructive purposes. This includes the creation of deepfakes, which are manipulated videos or audios that can make it seem like someone said or did something they did not, potentially having serious repercussions on individuals’ reputations and public misinformation. Additionally, the development of autonomous weapons that use AI to make attack decisions without human intervention raises serious ethical and security concerns. This malicious use not only affects individuals but can also destabilize entire societies, erode trust in media and institutions, and facilitate the spread of false news. AI’s ability to process large volumes of data and learn from it can be used to manipulate opinions, influence elections, and create social divisions. Therefore, it is crucial to address these issues from an ethical perspective, considering the implications of technology and establishing regulations to prevent its misuse.
