Episode Synopsis
Kerry Gallagher is on the #ReadingWithYourKids #Podcast to discuss keeping kids safe online and artificial intelligence. Kerry is an education director at Connect Safely, an internet safety nonprofit, and assistant principal at a boys' school. She talks about using AI tools like chatbots safely and discusses the benefits of AI, such as planning vacations and meals. However, she cautions that AI can spread biases and be used to generate deepfakes. Kerry emphasizes the importance of media literacy when using AI and warns of emerging threats like sextortion using manipulated images. She advises parents to have open conversations with kids and assure them they will not get in trouble for reporting problems.
