Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing industries and improving life, but also causes significant risk when used maliciously. This paper investigates the growing concern of the AI-managed crime, checks how AI can be exploited for malicious purposes such as cyber-attacks, misinformation campaigns, monitoring misuse and autonomous weapons. This exposes dual-use nature of AI technologies, where machine learning, natural language processing and progress in computer vision are leveraged for both social benefits and harmful intentions. The study underlines the need for active governance, moral guidelines and strong safety measures to reduce the abuse of AI. By analyzing the real -world matters and emerging threats, the purpose of this research is to raise awareness and propose framework to reduce the malicious use of AI, while promoting innovation responsibly.
