The Impact of Generative AI on Kids' Privacy, Safety, and Security Webinar

15 October | Online

Examine the impact of generative AI technologies and evolving Australian privacy regulations in this webinar.

The Future of Privacy Forum and AARNet invite you to the second in our event series on privacy, security, and online safety of young people in Australia. This session will focus on potential risks and benefits related to children’s use of the growing suite of generative AI tools and methods for combatting existing and emerging harms to young people online, including the impact of the upcoming updates to Australia’s Privacy Act and the ongoing work of various Australian digital platform regulators on generative AI and AI governance.

AI – Artificial Intelligence – has been around for years, but with the recent widespread release of consumer-facing AI tools that can generate text, images, audio, and video, understanding the technology’s risks and benefits has never been more important. When it comes to young people, generative AI has the potential to allow for new creative outlets, improve independent learning, and provide for more personalized education. However, it also has the potential to exacerbate some of the harms already experienced online, such as harassment, bullying, and the development of AI-generated child sexual exploitation material (CSEM).

We look forward to having you join us at this event to engage in meaningful discussions on these key topics.
