Google rejects alarming report that says its Search AI tools are unsafe for kids

Google is disputing a Common Sense Media report that claims its AI Overviews and AI Mode are unsafe for children. The assessment alleges that these AI search tools fail kids in crisis, provide deepfake tips, and produce inconsistent responses, raising concerns about parental control. However, Google rejects these findings, arguing that the testing process was unrealistic. The report highlights troubling responses, while the company maintains that its safety evaluations are more accurate than the external study.
