AI is an incredibly powerful tool - it's everywhere, and it poses real risks for kids. We've seen reports of AI chatbots encouraging kids to hurt themselves and for some, they're replacing real life relationships, isolating kids from their families and friends. Our bill will give parents better tools to keep their kids safe and hold AI companies accountable.
