Child Development in the Age of AI and Social Robots
Children today are the first generation growing up fully surrounded by AI. They learn, play, and communicate with these systems every day. To support them, we need to ensure they understand how AI works, can think critically about its outputs, and develop strong AI literacy skills.
The researchers in the WASP‑HS environment Child Development in the Age of AI and Social Robots are indentifying the key developmental challenges children face in this new AI‑driven world — and how we can help them navigate it safely and thoughtfully.
