Younger generations are growing up interacting with artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, yet little attention is paid to the impact of AI and related technologies on children.
AI holds great potential for children’s education and health but it is also a risk for their privacy and safety.
Decision-makers and tech innovators must prioritize children’s rights and wellbeing when designing and developing AI systems. Efforts should be undertaken to create AI curricula, and build AI literacy and skills of future generations.
