This is what happens when we let AI into our homes—especially with kids. No guardrails. Real risks. Lives lost. Take action before the White House and Congress strips states’ power to protect families: 👉 stopAIsafetyban.com

This. This and so many other things, but also this.

This is going to backfire. Hard. No parent is going to trust that their kids can’t get through your age gating. They will just push their kids to every other LLM. Why take the risk ? Same for schools. Why take the risk ? A few seniors in HS are 18 and decide it would be fun to show the hard core erotica they created to the 14 yr olds. What could go wrong ?

Meta’s “PG-13” update for #InstagramTeens sounds like progress, but without transparency or independent validation of efficacy, parents have little reason to believe it will actually keep their kids safer. Read our full statement below.

Instagram launched #TeenAccounts in Sept 2024, promising safer experiences for kids. & yet 47% of 13–15 y/os say they saw unsafe content or unwanted messages in the past month? Even worse... teens say they’ve grown “used to it.” Read more: time.com/7324544/instag…

Wow. Reuters/@JeffHorwitz with the story: Instagram Teen Accounts are flawed, according to new research by academics and a former Meta engineer: "Features meant to prevent young users from surfacing self-harm-related content by blocking search terms were easily circumvented."

We supported this research because kids deserve better. Led by whistleblower Arturo Béjar w/ US & UK academics + child safety groups, the findings are damning: 80% of Instagram’s “teen safety” tools don’t work. Read the full report: bit.ly/428sQnY

This isn’t a glitch. It’s intentional. @Meta 's products harm kids... by design. Thank you @designitforus & @accountabletech for exposing these harms.

Design It For Us@DesignItForUs

Accountable Tech asked five young people in our coalition to test Instagram Teen Accounts, which are meant to protect teens online. Our participants found that these accounts don't always live up to Meta’s promises. accountabletech.org/research/scary…

"When you dream at night, do you see our children’s faces?" We took to the street because we refuse to let Big Tech hide behind profits while children are harmed every day on their platforms built. Watch what happened. And then join us. youtu.be/74RqcfcNRI4
