AI safety for youth: HCI research lacks tested countermeasures

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new paper published on arXiv systematically reviews 100 empirical HCI studies concerning AI safety for youth. The research identifies a gap in the literature regarding the comprehensive understanding of AI risks for young people, how these risks are addressed, and the effectiveness of proposed countermeasures. The review found that while many risks are matched with proposed solutions, few have been implemented or evaluated, and existing evaluations often focus on technical performance rather than actual protection from harm. The paper calls for concrete directions in HCI research to enhance AI safety for youth. AI

IMPACT Highlights critical gaps in research for protecting young users from AI risks, urging focused development of tested safety measures.

    Systemization of Knowledge (SoK): Human-Centered AI Safety for Youth

    arXiv:2610.08554v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While HCI increasingly examines AI-safety for youth, the literature lacks a comprehensive view of what risks have been identified, how they are addressed, and whether proposed protections work in-practice. We systematically review…
