This is the reason that whenever you use AI, remember that it is not a human but a system that stores and processes your given information. In such a situation, if you put your personal or confidential information in it, then she can easily reach cyber criminals. Information like name, address, mobile number, email or bank details prove to be icing on gold for hackers. They can use them for identification, fraud or cyber attack.
Similarly, bank account, debit or credit card details and passwords should never be shared. It becomes easy for hackers to hack your financial accounts as soon as this information is leaked. Many people put their personal things on medical records or even office and company data on AI platforms. But this mistake can cause you heavy damage. Your privacy may be in danger when the medical record and health details are leaked, while the data related to the company is leaked, then there may be a direct loss to the business.
In addition, it is also not safe to seek legal advice from Chatbot. Many times people tell information related to cases or contracts AI, but it is neither a lawyer nor its advice is completely reliable. In such a situation, your legal status may worsen. Also, documents like passport, driving license, identity card or private photographs should never be shared on AI because when they are leaked, the theft of identity and cyber fraud increases manifold.
It is also to be noted that sharing an objectionable or porn content on AI chatbots can cause an account to be suspended. At the same time, such things that you do not want to be public should avoid sharing them with AI. Because these platforms can record till your normal conversation.
In short, AI definitely helps you, but negligence with it can bring you to the target of hackers. It would be better to use it only for general information and learning but always avoid sharing personal and sensitive data.
