Unfortunately, the parental controls are basically "on/off" measures, and schools and other places are increasingly expecting them to use AI tools.
And though parental supervision is THE TOOL, it doesn't apply when they're walking to and from school, on someone else's phone, or even using a laptop in a playground. Trust me. I know.
And then the AI tools are entirely lacking ANY KIND of parental control in themselves.
It's like telling everyone that they have to use 4chan for their homework, and then being shocked that they run into things they shouldn't.
Don't make / allow kids to use unsuitable tools, and AI companies should be offering a "child-safe" AI that simply isn't trained and can't discuss anything it shouldn't be able to discuss with a child unsupervised.
But, no, their solution is "we'll just check if you're 18 using the very tool that's already terrible and determining whether it should discuss ways to kill yourself or not".
