Parents Deserve Transparency: Bring AI Into the Light to Protect Kids

Millions of American children are forming close relationships with AI companions—often without parents knowing what those systems are teaching or learning from them. As AI rapidly reshapes health care, education, national security, and daily life, it holds the potential to usher in a new golden age for American families—but only if it is built on transparency and American values. America First Policy Institute is leading the fight for AI transparency, demanding visibility into how AI works, how data is used, and how biases and deception are addressed. When AI operates in the dark, families are left defenseless. Bringing AI into the light protects children, empowers parents, and ensures innovation serves the American people—not predators or unaccountable Big Tech.
