AI a boon, but its misuse can cause serious distress: NCW chief

National Commission for Women Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar has cautioned against misuse of artificial intelligence, particularly the morphing of women’s photographs and creation of deepfakes, while stressing the need to understand the technology and its potential risks.

In an interview with PTI, Rahatkar said AI has become an integral part of everyday life and it was important to keep pace with the technology rather than reject it.
