The Dark Side of AI: Navigating the Risks in Your Everyday Life
Ever wonder if your digital assistant is getting a bit too smart for comfort? You’re not alone. As AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot become more ingrained in our daily routines, it’s time to take a closer look at what we’re really signing up for.
Let’s dive into the world of general AI (Gen AI) and explore the potential pitfalls lurking beneath those helpful algorithms.
Your Data: AI’s Favorite Snack
Remember that time you asked ChatGPT for help with your resume? Or when you used Copilot to debug your code? Well, guess what? Those AI tools were taking notes.
Gen AI systems are data hungry. They gobble up every bit of information you feed them, using it to learn and improve. But here’s the kicker: your personal data might be on the menu.

This raises some serious questions:
- Who has access to your conversations with AI?
- How is your data being stored and used?
- Could your personal information be vulnerable to breaches?
