Adolescence, chatbots and AI intimacies
Run time: 19.00 – 20.00
What happens when AI becomes something you talk to every day?
Jessica Ringrose from University College London and her team of researchers and youth advisors explore their latest findings on how young people navigate AI in their daily lives. From entertainment and conversation, to therapy and relationships, chatbots and AI are used by people all over the world. But how do we rethink these everyday intimacies? And more importantly, how do we work with young people to educate, protect and inform their chatbot use in an increasingly AI-driven world?
Join the conversation and help shape a more informed, thoughtful future for young people and AI.
