New research from the domestic violence charity Refuge reveals a troubling reality: artificial intelligence chatbots are being weaponized by abusers to harass, stalk, and evade law enforcement. The report 'Invisible No More,' produced in partnership with Durham and Swansea Universities, exposes how technology can amplify violence against women.

CARE is highlighting this research as Parliament considers amendments to the Crime and Policing Bill to create new offences for AI companies that launch risky chatbots. This is a timely reminder that technological progress must be accompanied by ethical safeguards and accountability. The church's call to protect the vulnerable takes on new dimensions in our digital age. We're invited to support organizations like Refuge and CARE that are advocating for justice and safety, and to engage thoughtfully with the ethical questions technology raises.
