AI is reshaping kidsâ lives, and itâs time for our safety standards to catch up. We donât just hope cars are safeâwe built crash tests to prove it. Now, weâre bringing that same kind of testing to AI.
Today, we are launching the Youth AI Safety Institute, an independent research and testing organization dedicated to ensuring the AI that children use is safe and developmentally appropriate. The goal is to empower families and educators with the information they need and create a ârace to the topâ for the AI industry.
What weâll do:
â Set rigorous safety standards.
â Independently test whether AI products meet those standards.
â Publish results to provide transparency and accountability.
