      There are tools to ensure materials are from genuine resources and not AI.

      I think that depends on how you think AI is being misused. A lot of this requires children to not blindly accept everything they see, hear and read. If you do this then you are much more likely to be led astray by AI that has been written to do this. A well-behaved AI tool which has been properly trained and ethically governed won’t be doing this anyway. So… be critical of what you hear, see, read and think about whether this actually makes sense. Also, only use AI tools from reputable sources.

      The best way to protect children is to keep them informed about the dangers of AI, teach them about online privacy and about what happens to the information they put out there. It also helps if you give them some positive examples of the use of AI (helping to expand your knowledge on a topic) and the negatives (using it to do your homework for you).
