Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming a core technology for optimizing efficiency and driving innovation, with wide applications in fields such as healthcare, business operations, and public safety. However, like the other side of a coin, it also provides opportunities for criminals. As AI technology becomes increasingly sophisticated, criminal organizations are using it for hacking attacks, fraud, video forgery for extortion, and the spread of misinformation, making it difficult for people to defend against such threats.

After the Second World War, London underwent a profound transformation from a global trading port to an offshore financial center. In 1964, London ranked among the top three ports in Europe, handling as much as 61.3 million tons of cargo. However, by the 1980s, with the widespread adoption of large ocean-going vessels and container technology, the local enclosed docks were geographically and structurally unable to meet the demands of modern cargo transport. As a result, the volume of goods handled dropped sharply to 25 million tons, causing London’s port to lose its leading position.
