AI Isn’t Neutral. And It’s Making the Muck Worse.

It landed in a messy one, full of misogyny, power imbalance, violence, greed, and bad intentions.

And surprise: it’s amplifying all of it.

Who Pays the Price? Mostly Women, Children, and the Vulnerable.

AI isn’t hurting everyone equally.
That’s the uncomfortable truth.

Right now, it’s far easier to:

• Generate fake naked images of women

• Deepfake girls into porn

• Clone voices of children

• Scam elderly people

• Harass, blackmail, and extort at scale

You don’t need hacking skills.
You don’t need money.
You just need intent.

That’s terrifying.

Deepfakes Aren’t “Tech Issues.” They’re Trauma.

Let’s be clear.

When a woman’s face is put onto a fake nude:

• Her reputation is damaged

• Her safety is threatened

• Her consent is erased

And when she speaks up, she’s told:

“It’s not real. Just ignore it.” As if trauma checks for authenticity.

Reports already show:

• 90%+ of deepfake porn targets women

• Many victims are minors

• Content spreads faster than it can be taken down

Once it’s out, it’s forever.
AI doesn’t forget. The internet doesn’t forgive.

AI Gave Wings to Bad Intentions

Let’s say this plainly:

AI didn’t create predators.
It gave them tools.

Before:

• Harm took effort

• Risk was higher

• Scale was limited

Now:

• Harm is instant

• Anonymous

• Mass-produced
  

One person can destroy hundreds of lives from a bedroom with Wi-Fi.

That’s not innovation.
That’s acceleration of damage.

“But AI Is Just a Tool” Is a Lazy Take

Yes, AI is a tool.
So is fire.

But we don’t hand fire to children and say,
“Figure it out. Progress!”

Right now:

• Laws are slow

• Platforms are reactive

• Victims are left to clean up the mess
  

And accountability?
Almost nonexistent.

The burden is always on the harmed, never the builder.

The Real Problem: Speed Without Ethics

AI moved faster than:

• regulation

• education

• moral frameworks
  

And the first people to get hurt are always the ones with the least power.

Women.
Children.
The poor.
The digitally unaware.

Progress without protection isn’t progress.
It’s negligence.

Final Thought

AI can do incredible things.
But pretending it’s harmless while people are being violated is dishonest.

If we don’t slow down, regulate harder, and center human safety, especially for the most vulnerable.
We’re not building the future.

We’re automating harm.

So here’s the real question: who should be responsible when AI is used to destroy someone’s life- the user, the platform, or the people who built it?
