Artificial intelligence is no longer the stuff of science fiction — it is deployed on real battlefields, selects targets for air strikes, and shapes the course of conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. Here is an overview of what we actually know about the military use of AI, and why this debate should not remain the exclusive domain of generals and diplomats.
In recent days, the Council of the European Union (representatives of the Member States) has backed a controversial draft regulation known as Chat Control 2.0. Its aim is to combat the spread of child sexual abuse material (CSAM), but the way it seeks to achieve this has stirred strong reactions among cybersecurity experts and privacy advocates. What exactly does this proposal mean for ordinary users, and how does it relate to the recent call by Members of the European Parliament to ban social networks for children under 16?
AI chatbots are no longer just assistants. They are becoming companions, friends – and sometimes even partners. What may seem like comfort for the lonely can be a problem for children and teenagers. AI will never reject us. But real life isn’t like that. Are we heading into a future where it will be easier to love a machine than a human?
Artificial intelligence has become a common part of our lives – it helps us translate texts, create images, and organize tasks. However, with its rapid development, new threats have emerged that we could hardly imagine just a few years ago. One of the most serious is the phenomenon known as deep nudes. These are fake nude photographs created by artificial intelligence from ordinary images of people. Unfortunately, this trend does not affect only adults but increasingly also children and adolescents. The psychological impact on victims can be devastating.
There are places on the internet that at first glance appear to be forums for sharing male experiences and support among men. In reality, however, they often spread hatred towards women, contempt for girls, and rejection of equality. These communities are collectively referred to as the manosphere and can be very dangerous for adolescent boys.
