Artificial intelligence, as has been mentioned many times in the past, is not an inherently evil tool - its use, more precisely, is what dictates its positive or negative tendency. However, the constant stream of rather shameful news seems to be the order of the day, inevitably influencing public opinion of the technology itself.

Hugh Nelson, a 27-year-old British man, recently admitted 11 offences, including attempting to incite a boy under 16 to perform a sexual act, three counts each of distributing and generating indecent images, one count of possessing prohibited images, and three other crimes.

Generative artificial intelligence has become the preferred tool of degenerate criminals due to its ability to create images without requiring large payments or hard-to-find material.
