Sam’s Hangout #113 - “AI ABUSE”

I think the real threat is not on a personal level (like identity theft,etc), but on a society level. AI will help government to better oppress people. Surveillance will be AI supported and any misbehaviour (like saying something against the regime) will be tracked and pursued. Together with digital currencies and mandatoriy phone apps people will be more and more enslaved. Once completed they can do whatever they want.
Nice traffic you have there :)

Evening Fams, just want to drop my 2-50cent before dozing off 😍😍😍

Now, the misuse of AI in our society has become a serious threat to almost everything, especially to privacy and human dignity. And it's something we all can testify too, AI can help generate images or videos that will look so real it won't be that easy to tell. I made a post some months ago and generated the image for it via Gemini or Chatgpt, can't recall, but then, someone commented on the post to ask how I was able to prompt AI to make that kind of image, somebody else message me in discord to ask about the image too, it was just too real. And that's how it is, some are just experts in these things, they can use it to clone voices, images and all thereby using it to spread false info. We see these things online, it affects government officials, celebrities and even we The common man. The problem now is, it is not always so easy to tell if it's fake or not.

Now, I think there should be very strict punishments for those abusing and misusing AI. We all know how helpful, useful, and powerful AI is, for that reasons it needs to be regulated, if not it will cause more harm than good to the society.

About if Ai is the problem, I will gladly say no. The real problem is those using it, and their intentions. Over the year, a lot of things has changed and happened, and tech has helped bring about a lot of things, talk of smartphones, gadgets and the likes, now it's AI. AI itself has also proven to be very helpful, we can see people making use of it in almost every sector, talk of education, health, agriculture, finance, businesses and a whole lot.
Now,the problem is how dependent we are on it. It has affect our thinking and creativity. A lot of people can no longer think for themselves or answer simple questions. I got shocked the day I saw a guy in church preparing for a program and asking chatgpt questions... Including prayer points o... Omo 😱.

It is well sha, I believe there's a way we can balance things, I make use of AI too, but I don't depend on it, I try to think for myself, and do certain things on my own. There's the need to teach and educate the masses on responsible AI use, ethics, and originality...

AI should/must not replace us, it is a tool, and it should remain one.

Thank you for your attention to this matter 🫡.

Just like every other thing in our lives, AI has an advantage and a disadvantage and from the look of things it is not always the thing itself that is the problem, it is the people using it that are the problem.

AI was supposed to be like a support to people, but today many people are using it for the wrong thing just like they usually do, nothing comes out and remains that way till extinction, it's either it is changed and later forced to extinction because of the abuse or it is changed and continues to be used but limited because people are afraid of getting exposed and in the process being harmed.

Although this may not be related but I just found out that there is a shade or sunglasses that now snaps and record people without them knowing, do we understand that evil or deadly actions could be carried out with that especially for people who may not even know about the new development or who may likely not be able to differentiate the ordinary shades and the customised ones when they see it. Someone could come into your home snap or record your privacy without the owner's knowing.

The rules are to put people in check, just maybe if it is placed, it would curb but most times it is the people who know the law and feel they are above the law that do these things

AI is a good technology and has impacted our world in many positive ways.

That's why, I believe, AI is not the real problem, but rather the user's intention creates problem.

The impact of Ai tools depends solely on humans intentions and how they utilize them.

The real solution is guiding how Ai should be used by encouraging people to use it wisely.

One of the ways is by creating proper education on how AI works and how AI content can be manipulated in our society, because the rate people abuse AI can mislead others. Educating people will minimize the wrong use of AI from affecting others.

Also, there should be proper transparency. For instance, if a work was generated using AI, the creator of such work should indicate that it's not an original masterpiece.

If an AI content causes harm, fraud, discrimination, and deception, the user should face the consequences. This would help control how people use AI and limit harmful usage.

People should be free to explore the ideas, and create innovative content, but they should also understand the consequences of misusing AI content.

@cohlson @chefqueen @marsdave @afrikens it's hangout time 🥳

Like one of the prompts I wrote a few weeks ago. These tools are not the problem but when they fall into the wrong hands, they become a weapon of destruction. The same applies to AI. When it first came out, people were using it for a good purpose, but it fell into the wrong hands, and that's when we started seeing all these deepfakes and the like.
In my opinion, one way to encourage the use of AI is to educate people properly on its applications. The disadvantages and disadvantages of using it. And the freedom to explore new ideas should not be taken away from us because doing so might suppresses progress in a way
In other words, there should be a solid foundation on how to use it, while those two misuse it will be held accountable

@betheloji12 @afrikens @marsdave @amara24 come and drop your 2cent

I think this is the time this saying "believe everything you see online at your own peril" should be taken more seriously because the extent to which people abuse the use of AI tools is alarming.

The online space is flooded with so many contents that one doesn't knows which is real or AI. Some are so clean that it'd be difficult to spot the Ainism in them. Lol.

AI itself, isn't bad, neither is it a problem, rather the people using it are. AI was meant to be a tool for special purposes, but people have turned it into a weapon of mass destruction - unscrupulous activities and the likes.

There should be some rules guiding the use of AI tools, and any defaulter should be made to face the consequences. Unfortunately, we're in a country where anything goes.

I think the owners of these social media platforms should look into this issue, and probably put a restriction on its usage and if possible, ban anyone found wanting in the use of AI tools.

I don tok my own.

AI has been a game changer. I don't think there has been an agent driving changes in our society as fast as AI is.
Good things can be done faster and more efficiently. Same applies to the bad things.

AI was meant as a tool for achieving great things, now sophisticated problems like impersonation, false narratives, and advance security breaches have come up.
We're trying to solve these same problems created by AI using AI.

AI can give you massive results and progress at scale, but it also has to be regulated to ensure the best intentions from users, especially now that AI is being used for something like national defence and finance.

AI artificial intelligence is really taking up most most of the activities in the world orphans are AI or a laptops information will work with most things that we interact with all our daily life robots are all AI generated .To be honest they make life easier and more convenient for us it can imagine being able to access any information that you want online it's quite amazing being able to have AI fight your letters for you on for your calls for you make your calls for you I went your documents receive your mail thought out your mail for you for even help you to plan your day it's quite amazing and it makes work load easier.

Most people will say that AI is actually taking over the country and that it would get to a point where there would be nothing that AI cannot do and human beings would slowly fade yes there is a lot to what AI can do but they are also things that AI can never ever take over AI cannot take over reproduction , AI cannot take over good parenting, AI cannot take over how we think as human beings and how we interact with other people around us. AI can only help us to enhance things that we are supposed to do and make it easier for us to achieve them.We have the negative effects and the positive effects of AI.The positive effects of AI includes wouldn't say that AI is currently positive and does not have negative aspects, AI have positive and negative aspects just as every other thing in life but it doesn't have to be abused or overuse even as we enjoy the advantages we should be where of the disadvantages and not let it be an obsession or ruin our lives in the long run.deep faking had to do with Ai generated vedio of people doing something they never did and looking at that it sure looks very risky and incriminating. It can easily be misused and abused. Currently it looks like deepfake can is basically used for setting people up and framing them to extort money from them. I came across a deepfake vedio of a lady hugging her later mom and dad and it made remember my late dad and sister and I wished I could also get a video of me hugging them once more. Deepfake can serve so many good purposes.

AI has helped in the improving healthcare services and medications. People no longer bother to do researches about things by themselves the solely depend on AI generated materials which reduce how much time they take to think research and professor solution to things by themselves.

@sam.hangout @marsdave @nc6 @stayoutoftherz @afrikens

I strongly believe that the way people use AI is what truly matters. AI has both good and bad sides. Today, if you look at social media platforms, AI-generated videos have flooded the internet so much that they are gradually pushing aside parts of the real movie industry. Everywhere you look AI, they have both for children and for adults all are busy watching or even creating AI movies.

Another example is the newly invented smart eye glasses that can secretly record events happening around people. While these glasses have helped expose some wrong activities that might never have been discovered, they also raise serious concerns about privacy and misuse.

Our children are not left out in this AI era. Many children now depend on phones and AI tools to search for answers to their assignments. Before AI became common, students had to read textbooks, visit libraries, and think more deeply to complete their work. Today, some students rely too much on AI instead of learning for themselves. I even heard that the girl who scored highest in the last JAMB examination said she used AI to summarize
her study questions.

There are many examples that i
can not discuss because of time. In conclusion, I believe AI itself is not the real problem. The main issue is the people using it. If AI is used responsibly, it can improve education, communication, security, and many other areas of life. But when it is misused, it can create laziness, spread false information, and threaten privacy and creativity.

Make I paused here go call @amara24 @zusi78 @kachy2022 make them come collect this 🎤 my hand de heavy me.😜😜😜

Good morning my kontri pple. This week topic is very vital and maybe an opportunity for us to share our view and prepare our mind for what is coming ahead.

The issue of misuse of AI advancement in our world today is already a threat to humans in diverse ways

This days, it is getting so harder to know what is real or fake on the internet. People manipulate others anyhow and do other unimaginable things using AI and yet we are still comfortable thinking it's still an advancement to assist humans .

Well, the earlier the better,so I think there should be strict regulations and punishments to those that abuse this tool . Let there be a standing laws that will punish anyone who intentionally use AI for fraud, impersonation, blackmail, cyberbullying, or other firm of fake info pple spread on the Internet to mislead others,with this ,maybe thus abuse will be curtailed for our own good.

Nice topic!
Will just be dropping few points.

I think it's not new that there is surely disadvantages that comes along with advantages,which AI isn't left out, Since AI started existing it has done both good and bad to the society, though the intention for creating it was only to be at an advantage to us but then there human who will always misuse things asking as it is in their capacity. AI has done both wrong just like other technology introduced,it is we people that's controlling the usage the problem and there's nothing to control human for a change than punishment, once there's serious consequences for those that abuse it,impersonating,invading people's privacy and lot more .

Just like hive punishment people who uses AI to write their post by downvoting them,this has made people here stick to using their brain as long as they need hive money. That's just how to keep human on track works.

Happy weekend and have a great one .
I will be busy as I have a student to take today .

@afrikens @treasuree @marsdave @van.illa
How are you guys ?

Yes, AI is becoming a threat to trust and human dignity online. I can't blame it on the use because the feature to impersonate was added to its creation and it keeps getting refined daily, attempting to meet perfection. To every creation, there's a positive and negative side. While people may boast of its diverse advantages, it promotes features that aid manipulation, impersonation, and privacy violations.

A scammer can make a video call using AI features, changing his look to another person to look real, and other forms where AI is used for deceit. People use it because the tool exists and can't completely be blamed for lack of discipline. What better way can such features be used, knowing certain humans are out for no good?

Restrictions:

Restrictions can be placed where people are checked to see if they have the right to certain images. Certain tools should be available to specific groups of people after careful verification, plus a detailed record of the user in case of misuse.

As for punishment, a year in prison would do well.

Good day, my fellow Nigerians. Hope your day is going well. My take on how AI is all-over nowadays and How it has contributed in helping us to create online stuffs easily. AI its self is a tool on its own, and we only use it to solve our problems easily. Well... I can't say that AI is the cause of any problem at all because what ever that is good also has its disadvantages. That is to sey that if a user uses it on the right way, it contributes in developing good things in our society but. When used in inappropriate, like using it to hurt others. Then it creates more harm to our environment.

But I think, it is better if law is enforced on the use of every AI innovation So that each AI can be customised in such a way that no one can use it to create fake news, or generate fake identities... It may help in reducing online crimes like scam.

Happy Sunday friends ❤️

Hello everyone,

In this life every thing has it's pro and con and that goes with the use of AI too.
We shouldn't blame the technology but then let blame those who use it because the technology cannot just stand up and use itself, its how people use it that affects the society or those they use it against. So here is what I think, there should be limit to how things are being used for real , and we humans should have sympathy towards people that such AI use is being directed at.

There should be limits to everything seriously. There should.

@henryjnrr @cohlson @afrikens @merit.ahama
Happy weekend to you all.
What's supping?

Pretty soon, when AI will have the power not to take stupid orders.
And users data will be a threat to not fooling around with it.
The abuse will stop.
For now, I think it juat needs to see how far human studpidity can go, we are still in the training phase, just be careful, AI does not forget.

Hello my people,
AI is not the problem, the intention of the users is the issue to be considered.
AI is a tool in the hands of his users.
The usage control and proper acknowledgement of the use of AI is one important consideration. Sadly, the rate of over dependency on Ai is affecting creativity of humans.
Students just dumped their homework on Ai and copy out the answers.
Most times, on probing further you will be shocked that they don't even know or understand the meaning of what the copied out.

If restrictions are placed, it may curtail the abuse partly.
Although some people will still manoeuvre to use it. Just like the PG (parental guidance)and G13(general viewing) rating on some television programs, not every parent or guardian has been able to enforce it fully. Ai is not replacing humans, humans are the one giving Ai that replacement power.

Happy weekend...🥂
