Beware: Friendships with AI can be both good and bad – It can put you in great danger
……………………………………………………………………..
Artificial intelligence chatbots are changing the way people interact with technology. From answering questions and writing emails to providing emotional support, these tools have become a part of many people’s lives. Their ease of use and ability to respond like humans make them trustworthy.
However, experts warn that sharing too much information with AI can put your privacy at risk. Let’s find out what to keep in mind when using AI.
**Personal information:** Avoid sharing information like your full name, address, phone number, or email. This information can be used to identify your online identity, which can be used for fraud, phishing, or tracking.
**Bank details:** Avoid entering sensitive information like bank account numbers, credit card details in chatbots, as it is more likely to lead to data theft. Share bank details only through secure and official channels, not through AI chatbots.
**Passwords:** Never share your login credentials with any chatbot. Sharing passwords can put your email, banking and social media accounts at risk. Always store passwords in a secure password manager, not in AI chats.
**Health and medical information:** Chatbots may find it helpful to ask about symptoms or treatments for illnesses, but AI is not intended to provide medical advice. Avoid sharing your personal health information, including medical records, prescriptions or insurance numbers.
