Instead of working 14 hour days..I think I'll try relaxing for 14 hours!

What ethical boundaries are we quietly crossing with AI—and what aren’t we even thinking about yet?

Today I tested how easily generative AI can recreate realistic receipts—down to barcodes, tax, cashier names, and timestamps. It took minutes. (This is what an ethical hacker does while on vacation! ;-))

Now ask:

● What stops someone from using this for deception?

● Who’s responsible—the user or the platform?

● How do we flag generated artifacts in a way that’s transparent but non-intrusive?

As someone researching AI’s ethical implications, this is more than a tech experiment—it’s a mirror. AI will continue enabling faster, more convincing simulations of reality. But are we moving fast enough on accountability, attribution, and trust?

We’re talking a lot about deepfakes and misinformation, but we’re missing the smaller, subtle uses of AI that quietly erode trust in everyday systems.

What are we not thinking about yet?

Who and Why

Hi my name is Dale Meredith and this is my page. The purpose of this page here, YouTube and on Instagram is to GIVE BACK and to help families become more secure and safe when dealing with digital devices. After I got married and had three beautiful daughters I was left scrambling to provide as a father and husband but as a college drop out it was hard. So I decided to go back to college, tech college where I learned everything Microsoft as well as was introduced into security. The tech college skyrocketed me into my Ultimate Passion…. Teaching Tech to Others. Life was good, Family was Good, then that feeling you get when you realize how blessed your life has been and knocked us to our knees and we knew we had to GIVE BACK. Our family life was great YET….. While our life and family life was doing great, my wife and I knew it was time to do OUR part. We met a sibling group in need and adopted three boys, a 14 year old, a 10 year old and a 4 month old. A couple years an older brother assimilated into our clan. This is where Gabe comes in, he was the 4 month old we adopted and our caboose. And he became the Robin to my Batman. Throughout my life I have always got “those” calls, where friends and family needed my IT expertise with their devices. But lately this calls became more serious and more urgent. “Dale, my 12 year old’s computer is filled with porn”, “Dale, my credit card was hacked”, “My social media account got hacked” Every fiber of my being was SCREAMING at me GIVE BACK, #giveback, GIVE BACK. My life’s passion changed on a dime, still teaching tech, but wanting to help teach others how to be safe with their tech. I started also on the side speaking to community and church events to help parents keep themselves and their kids safe. We are going to take IT concepts and Geek stuff and “dumbing” them down so that everyone can benefit from the knowledge that is swarming around in my head. I want to create a place where to share knowledge and resources to help you and your families be smart and safe with all these tech devices coming into our lives We will also be introducing new tech toys after they come available and we will share ways to help you and your family get the most of your technology that you already own. Also not only are we giving back by helping others with their technology, we are going to donate tech toys we review here to kids that are in need, kids like Gabe's brothers in foster care. #techtips #familysafety #adoption
