Schools across the country deploy AI-powered monitoring software for student safety, but studies indicate this may cause more harm than good, especially for disadvantaged youth.
Despite noble intentions, companies providing student surveillance software like GoGuardian have not demonstrated increased student safety, raising concerns over privacy and civil rights.
The RAND study shows that reactions to alerts from monitoring software are left to poorly equipped law enforcement, often leading to disastrous outcomes for youth in crises.
Experts argue that schools resort to technology solutions like AI for monitoring, as they lack the resources to implement effective mental health support measures.
