Abstract / Description of output

AI-powered solutions are increasingly woven into the fabric of children’s digital worlds. They’re found in interactive toys, home automation systems, everyday apps, and various online services that young users engage with. As we look ahead, it’s almost certain that the prevalence of AI in tools and platforms designed for kids will grow, given AI’s ability to offer rich, tailored, and dynamic experiences. However, the nuances of how these AI-centric platforms cater to children and how they can be optimized to meet the unique needs of younger users remain largely underexplored. Building on the momentum from our inaugural CCAI workshop at CHI 2023, our aspirations for this year’s workshop include: (1) deepening the discourse on the essence of AI that prioritizes children, (2) focusing on actionable strategies to operationalise child-centered AI design principles into practice, and (3) cultivating an ever-growing collective of professionals passionate about the future of child-focused AI innovations.
