  How AI is Being Misused: A Growing Concern Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized industries, from healthcare to finance, education, and beyond. However, as with any powerful tool, AI can be misused, causing harm in various ways.

  What is IoT (Internet of Things)? The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a network of physical objects—devices, vehicles, appliances, and other "things" embedded with sensors, software, and connectivity—that collect and exchange data over the internet. IoT enables these devices to interact with each other, systems, and users, creating a smarter and more interconnected world. How Does IoT Work? Device Integration IoT-enabled devices come with embedded sensors, actuators, and connectivity hardware (e.g., Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 5G). Data Collection Sensors within the devices collect real-time data about the environment or device-specific metrics (e.g., temperature, motion, location). Data Transmission The collected data is transmitted to a central hub or cloud server using communication protocols like Wi-Fi, Zigbee, or cellular networks.
