Girls find AI smarter, funnier, and more helpful than parents, survey shows

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A recent survey by Girl Scouts of the USA reveals that a significant majority of girls aged 5-13 view AI-powered voice assistants and chatbots as friends, often turning to them for emotional support and homework help. Many girls perceive AI as superior to their parents for entertainment, recommendations, and academic assistance, a trend largely underestimated by parents. While most parents acknowledge AI's potential benefits, a substantial portion express concern about their children's ability to discern AI-generated information and a lack of preparedness to teach safe AI usage.
