Snapchat will give parents the ability to block teens from interacting with its My AI chatbot to protect them from harmful content.
This was reported by CNN, according to Ukrinform’s report.
Snapchat said on its blog on Thursday that “My AI” already “includes protection against inappropriate or harmful responses, offers the ability to temporarily limit the use of Snapchat users who regularly abuse the service, and takes into account age characteristics.” “
Snapchat also offers parents access to security and privacy settings for their children through its “Family Center” parental control tool. Parents can see who their kids have shared their Stories with, who can contact them in the app, and whether they’ve shared their location on the app’s live Snap Map.
These changes are the latest updates to the Family Center feature, which allows parents to monitor the behavior of users ages 13 to 17. This feature was launched in 2022, at a time when there were widespread concerns about the safety of young users of Snapchat, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and other social networks.
Since the launch of Family Center, Snapchat has continued to implement various safety measures for teens; These include a “blocking system” launched in September for accounts sharing inappropriate content for teens on Stories and Spotlight, where users can share content publicly within the app. .
As Ukrinform reported, last year the American company Snap Inc., which owns the Snapchat messenger, introduced a chatbot with artificial intelligence My AI.
Meta Platforms recently announced that it will begin hiding more content from teens on Instagram and Facebook.
