Decoding Personal Security - Strategies to Safeguard Humans in the Era of Intelligent Machines
Abstract
By 2030, it is projected that over 60% of the global population will use AI-powered applications, signifying a widespread integration of AI into our daily lives. While this advancement in technology offers substantial prospects, it also triggers growing concerns over its impact on personal welfare. The increasing prevalence of AI technology used by malevolent cyberattackers poses a significant threat to individual security. The article explores the convergence of AI technology and personal safety, analyzing the risks associated with AI-driven cyber-crimes and proposing potential solutions. This report examines several artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and evaluates their vulnerabilities, highlighting statistics such as the 90% prevalence of human error in cyberattacks in 2022. Through a comprehensive analysis of existing defensive tactics, the research introduces a multidimensional structure for improving individual safety. This paradigm integrates legislative frameworks, technological solutions, and instructional activities, fostering a complete approach that addresses the problem from several angles. The proposed framework places user empowerment as the top priority via the implementation of cybersecurity education. Equipping individuals with the requisite knowledge and skills to safeguard themselves on the internet is crucial in diminishing their vulnerability to AI-fueled attacks. Practical recommendations are offered to individuals, policymakers, and technology companies to mitigate the security risks associated with artificial intelligence proactively. This article contributes to the significant discourse on ensuring the safeguarding of personal privacy and security in the age of artificial intelligence. By advocating for a holistic approach that includes legal, technical, and educational elements, it establishes the groundwork for a future that places human welfare as a top priority while still advancing technology.
