Every day, AI videos are being fed to children who use YouTube and YouTube Kids. Even though it may look innocent, this “AI slop” can harm children’s developing brains.

Creators are making millions of dollars by posting AI slop for kids as young as babies. These videos are often labeled “educational,” but they can actually make it harder for kids to learn, twist their sense of reality, and keep them glued to the screen and away from the play and socializing that kids need!

Recent research has shown that, after watching a popular video, 40% of the videos that YouTube recommends to children are AI slop. Even YouTube Kids, which is supposed to have child-friendly content, is full of AI videos! What’s more, Google (which owns YouTube) recently announced that it’s investing in even more AI videos for kids.

It’s time to take action.

As covered in the news, over 235 organizations and experts signed on to a letter to Google and YouTube to demand that they take action to protect kids from AI slop on their platforms. You can read the full letter here: http://bit.ly/stopAIslop
