  •  
    "Security fears about Chinese influence over Bytedance, TikTok's owner, are undoubtedly part of the reason why UK politicians have been reluctant to get involved, and the political context is also different - Biden is reacting to Donald Trump's social media clout - but US strategists such as Teddy Goff have suggested that building up an army of TikTokers who can share and amplify political messages is vital."

UK mother of boy who killed himself seeks right to access his social media | Internet s... - 0 views

    "A woman whose 14-year-old son killed himself is calling for parents to be given the legal right to access their child's social media accounts to help understand why they died. Ellen Roome has gathered more than 100,000 signatures on a petition calling for social media companies to be required to hand over data to parents after a child has died.

  •  
    ""Deeply disturbing" research exposes how easy it is for children to encounter inappropriate content and interact unsupervised with adults on the gaming platform Roblox.

It says it is working hard to fix this, but that industry-wide collaboration and government intervention are needed."

What if we could test, virtually, whether a public apology would calm tensions… or make things worse? That's the provocative promise behind the growing use of digital twins in peacemaking: AI-powered simulations of complex social systems, designed to help us understand conflict-and imagine pathways out of it."

The Voice Effect: Why Students Desperately Need Critical Thinking Skills for AI Interac... - 0 views

  •  
    "Why the way AI speaks to us matters more than what it says We're living through a fundamental shift in how we access information. Students today don't just Google answers-they ask Alexa, chat with ChatGPT, and increasingly, speak with AI voices that sound remarkably human. But here's what's concerning: research shows that when information comes through a voice rather than text, we're significantly less likely to think critically about it."
