Help Your Child See How Algorithms See Them (Just launched)
The Synthetic Society Lab and Oxford Child-centred AI Lab are launching a new research study with children aged 12-17 this ummer!
Ever wonder what determines what your teenager sees on TikTok, YouTube, or Netflix?
Researchers at the OII Synthetic Society Lab and Oxford Child-centred AI Lab, along with colleagues at MIT and CMU, developed a tool called Algorithmic Mirror, revealing hidden profiles that algorithms create about younger people online.
This summer, we’re looking for families with teens aged 12-16 to join our research study. Your child will get to see unique visualisations of their own digital footprint, learn strategies for managing their online privacy, and help shape a safer digital future.
