"I taught her to turn to Google News to find at least one legitimate news data point supporting the social media content. If she can't find anything on a legitimate news outlet supporting what she saw, she knows what's in front of her may not be real."
"I've taught her that they aren't creating content for fun; they are also out to make money, so they may cut corners or use artificial intelligence to twist the truth."
"Once she recognizes the patterns, I ensure she understands that what the algorithm thinks she wants isn't necessarily real."
"AI is part of the future - whether we like it or not. I want my daughter to know that it's not all doom and gloom."
As a mother with extensive experience in tech, I emphasize teaching my daughter critical skills for navigating AI's influence on information. I've instilled in her the importance of fact-checking questionable news by seeking corroboration from legitimate sources like Google News. She learns to recognize patterns in algorithm-driven content and to question whether it's presenting a true narrative. Furthermore, she is taught to be wary of AI-generated influencers who may not be genuine. While AI poses challenges, I believe it's essential to also acknowledge its potential for positive contributions to society. My goal is to raise her with a questioning mindset towards online information.
