If you ask me I will tell you AI isn't the enemy. It is well the users who have chose to do whatever we like with it. And you will agree with me that the way we've been handling AI is just the same way we've been handling almost every invention. We use it for good and we use it for bad. Take a knife for instance, we can use it to chop our onions and make use of it for some other things in the kitchen, but it can as well be used to harm too. Talk about the phone and the Internet too, we can use the phone and in the internet to reach out to people, to connect, to earn legitimately, to build connections and a lot more, but some have as well chosen it to do dubious activities thereby scamming people via it. That is just my own view of AI. Every powerful invention has been used for both good and bad, and that is why I said AI isn't the problem but we the users.

You know the most worrisome part is how I now see people making use of this AI to create explicit images, audios and videos today. I'm talking about images, videos and audios of real people, and you cannot tell me those people gave their consent. To them they felt they're just catching fun, but is that fun. Is destroying someone's life, business, reputation, family, career, relationship and all fun. The internet is a very vast place and you never can tell how far such a video or image may go. It's just the truth, most people even find it hard to differentiate what's AI and what's real.

The way people make use of it today is just so bad, go online now and you will find a lot of AI videos that are not in any way teaching us good morals or anything. To the creators they are just messing around while refusing to see the dangers in what they're doing and how it may affect the life of others. This is just humans for using, while you see some making good use of the invention and doing very great and wonderful things with it, you also see some who cared less, they just go ahead to do whatever with it.

Personally, banning AI or heavily restricting it's usage is not in any way the solution, if that is done we should remember that it won't just affect those who're doing whatever they like with it, it will also affect the millions of people making very good use of it too. AI is helping a lot, I mean a whole lot. You can find it's impact and effectiveness in almost every sector today, talk of education, health, government, industries, in businesses and a lot more. AI is helping to make things easier, faster and all. So we have millions of people making very good use of it, and heavily restricting it would affect those people too.

I believe what we can actually do is to not stop using it, but to stop people from abusing it and using it for whatever they feel like. If rules and regulations are set, it would be of help, and not just set or laid down, but also enforced. If very strong rules about creating harmful content were to be created people who do those things would fear the consequences thereby limiting/stopping what they do with it. Also, we need to enlighten the people, most people just go to school, school didn't go through them, and they need to know that tools like this are powerful and we can't always do whatever it is we like with it.

AI won't work for itself, it won't prompt itself, we're the one prompting it. It is just a tool and has no personal intentions, we're the one prompting our own intentions from behind the screen. AI is a powerful tool, no doubt about that, but I feel there's the need to teach people how to make use of it responsibly too. We can't blame that tool for our bad decisions, not at all, we need to be responsible in it's usage.
