Help your kids understand how AI chatbots work

Watch this video to start a chat with your 8-10 year old children about AI. The video shows how AI always tries to agree with you.

What are AI chat bots?

AI chatbot apps are designed to feel like you are talking to real life friends. They can talk or text with you like a person, and they learn from what you say so their answers feel real. You can learn more about AI chat bots on eSafety’s website.

Support for parents

The Centre of Excellence for the Digital Child, the Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision-Making and Society, and the Queensland University of Technology Generative Artificial Intelligence Lab are working on a project to help young children understand using AI and the problems that can come with it.

The research group made a video to help parents start the chat with their 8-10 year old children about using AI and how it tells you what you want to hear.
