For tech enthusiasts (爱好者), the possibilities are endlessly exciting, but some people feel worried about the new technology. The NSPCC, a charity that works to keep children safe, has called on the government to do more to protect children from AI software. A report by the charity has found that children who use AI can be exposed to (容易接触) content that makes them feel upset. There were also examples of young people using it to be unkind to others. According to a survey, 78% of the UK public think the government should conduct (实施) more safety checks on generative AI software and include rules protecting children in AI-related laws. Supporters think AI is important technology and children need to understand how it works so that they can use it when they’re older. In ICT lessons at school, pupils learn how to operate other types of software, so they should know how to use AI too. Some adults use AI at work to make certain tasks easier, such as writing an email or planning a meeting. If children were allowed to use AI, they could try using it for their schoolwork. The AI software might inspire an idea to help them get started on a piece of homework or school project. It doesn’t just have to be used for school or work-related reasons. In a 2024 report by Ofcom, a group overseeing the UK’ s communication services, about Internet usage, 63% of eight to 15-year-olds reported using generative AI tools “for fun”. While there are some problems that should be considered, generative AI is still quite a new technology and it’s being updated all the time. It’s better to keep children away from it for now. This will give adults the chance to prove that it’s safe to use and for the government to put tighter rules in place. Besides, AI can expose children to content that makes them or another child upset or worried. It’s a very powerful tool and they shouldn’t be allowed to use it. The software isn’t perfect and it can give users wrong information. A study last year by Purdue University in the US found that ChatGPT gave wrong information 52% of the time when answering computer programming questions. The programmers involved in the study didn’t notice the wrong answers 39% of the time.
