Understanding the Shadowy Side of Social Media
In the fast-changing world of social media, the growth of artificial intelligence (AI) has led to amazing new possibilities, but it also brings serious questions about ethics. Think of this landscape as a bustling city where new buildings (technologies) pop up overnight, yet some are built on shaky foundations.
Recently, a surprising number of Instagram accounts have been using AI to steal content from original human creators—like a thief sneaking into someone else’s house and taking their valuable belongings. But these accounts don’t just stop there; they use deepfake technology, which is a clever but dangerous trick. This technology can change images to make it seem like the original creators are saying or doing things they did not actually do. For instance, it has been reported that some images are modified in such a way that it appears as though the creators have Down syndrome, which is not only unethical but alarming. This trend raises a vital need for all of us to be more aware and proactive in this AI-driven era.
