🧸 Artificial Intelligence and Childhood: New Opportunities and New Risks

The Economist writes that artificial intelligence opens up more opportunities for children — from personalized learning to fostering creativity. But at the same time, it can create barriers to growing up.

The publication urges society to rethink the role of AI in upbringing, so that benefits do not turn into risks for future generations.
