Designing AI for Kids: What It Actually Takes
Join leaders in AI, education, and product design for a conversation about how to build AI learning experiences that kids genuinely trust.
As AI becomes more embedded in children’s learning and everyday lives, designers are facing a new set of questions: What makes AI feel emotionally safe for kids? How should children relate to AI characters? And how do we design experiences that support curiosity, confidence, and agency?
This panel brings together experts across learning design, child safety, character systems, and educational technology to discuss the future of AI-powered learning for children.
Stay afterward for a happy hour so the conversation can continue!
