đź”´WARNING. Calling All Warriors to Take Action. đź”´Sign the Petition: Protect Kids from Harmful AI Companions.
AI-powered “companion” chatbots like Character.AI, Replika, and Nomi are being used by children and teens — even though they pose real, well-documented dangers to kids. New research from Common Sense Media shows that these products can expose kids to sexual content, reinforce harmful stereotypes, and can encourage them to hurt themselves or others. That’s why Common Sense Media and Lynn’s Warriors are calling on these companies to immediately: đź”´Prevent young people under 18 from engaging with these chatbots đź”´Implement safeguards that actively prevent harmful behavior — including cyberbullying, self-harm, and encouraging users to hurt others đź”´Ensure these chatbots encourage real-life connections and prompt users to reach out to family, friends, or mental health professionals Young people deserve digital spaces that are safe, respectful, and age-appropriate — not environments that exploit their emotions or expose them to harm. Please sign our petition urging these companies to protect our kids.
