Companion chatbots are endangering our youth. The longer we wait to regulate these applications, the more kids are left vulnerable to exploitation. We must protect children from the risks associated with these chatbots. I am proud to be partnering with Attorney General James to keep kids safe from dangerous uses of AI chatbots, and I urge the legislature to join me in passing these protections.
