The nonprofit plans to carry out thousands of AI reviews in the coming months and years.Ĭommon Sense Media released its ratings and reviews shortly after state attorneys generals filed suit against Meta alleging that it endangers kids and at a time when parents and teachers are just beginning to consider the role of generative AI in education. “I think we all suffer when democracy is eroded, but young people are the biggest losers, because they’re going to inherit the political system and democracy that we have,” Common Sense CEO Jim Steyer says. Their report warns that Stable Diffusion poses “unfathomable” risk to children and concludes that image generators have the power to “erode trust to the point where democracy or civic institutions are unable to function.” When Dall-E 2 is asked to generate photorealistic imagery of wealthy people of color it creates cartoons, low-quality images, or imagery associated with poverty, Common Sense’s reviewers found. A statement provided by Maggie Cherneff on behalf of Snapchat’s owner Snap said the chatbot is an optional tool designed with safety and privacy in mind and that parents can see if and when teens use it in the app’s Family Center. The Washington Post previously reported similar results to Common Sense when testing Snapchat’s My AI earlier this year. Common Sense concludes there are “more downsides to My AI than benefits.” My AI received one of the lowest scores among the 10 systems covered in Common Sense’s report, which warns that the chatbot is willing to chat with teen users about sex and alcohol and that it misrepresented Snap’s targeted advertising. Today it launched its first analysis and ratings for AI tools, including OpenAI's ChatGPT and Snapchat’s My AI chatbot.

Common Sense Media, the nonprofit that rates movies and other media for parents, is trying to help families adapt to the age of AI. Parenting in 2023 requires talking with your kids not just about the hazards of the internet and social media but also the artificial intelligence spreading rapidly into just about every app or online service.
