How can I stay safer when using AI?
AI stands for artificial intelligence.
It is a way of using computers to do things that used to need humans.
AI is getting better very quickly.
More people use it everyday.
But AI does not always get things right.
Just like people, it can make mistakes.
It is important to check what it suggests before you use it.
Read over what it writes for you.
Ask someone you trust if it’s ok.
And check the info on official websites.
People can use AI to try to trick you.
It can be used by criminals to make scams and fake information look more real.
Remember: even if a friend shares something online, it might not be true.
If it sounds too good to be true, it might be a scam or fake.
It’s important to know who can see what you share on AI apps.
Don’t share personal information if you are not sure to be on the safer side.
Learning AI can help you to stay safer, have fun and make your life easier.
