Quote: "these AI tools pose unacceptable risks to children and teens under age 18 and should not be used by minors." (Common Sense Media, 2025). Primary source commonsensemedia.org returned HTTP 403 to automated fetching; corroborated via web search. The press release "AI Companions Decoded: Common Sense Media Recommends AI Companion Safety Standards" states exactly that social AI companions "pose unacceptable risks to children and teens under age 18 and should not be used by minors," based on risk assessments with Stanford's Brainstorm Lab. Attribution correct (Common Sense Media). Year 2025 current/acceptable. Vote alignment correct for both: CSM recommends no AI companions for under-18s, supporting "for" on statement 416 "Ban AI companion chatbots for minors under 18"; and recommends robust age assurance beyond self-attestation, supporting "for" on statement 445 "Requiring age verification and content safeguards for AI chatbots to protect minors."
