AI Ethics: Everyday Playbook

核心要点

• When an AI moment moves fast, choose the move you can undo, hear the person with most to lose, and name the trade-off aloud.
• If a teacher suspects machine-written work, defend the process rather than the verdict: bring notes and drafts, and let your child explain the work.
• When your child made the fake, get it taken down, hear them privately and help them apologise in person, because the other child's dignity comes first.
• Correct a relative privately when a forward is harmless, and in the group, gently and with a source, when it could hurt someone.
• Monitor only what matches a real risk, tell your child exactly what is watched and why, and write down a date to review it.

1. Three rules for moments that move fast

   AI trouble at home rarely arrives with time to think. A teacher emails before breakfast, a video spreads through the family group in minutes, a teenager wants an answer at ten at night.

2. When a teacher suspects machine-written work

   Schools increasingly run essays through AI detectors, tools that estimate whether text was machine-written. They estimate patterns rather than prove anything, and they can wrongly flag writing that is plain, formal or in a second language.

3. When your child made the fake

   Most advice imagines your child as the target of an AI fake. Sometimes they are the maker: a doctored photo of a classmate or a cloned voice of a teacher, shared as a joke.

4. When a relative forwards something false

   AI-made fakes travel fastest in family groups, because they arrive from people we trust: a doctor who does not exist, floods filmed in another city, a school announcement nobody made. Correcting an elder publicly feels rude; silence lets harm spread.

5. When the monitoring app offers more than you need

   Parental-control apps increasingly use AI to read messages, flag worrying words and even claim to sense a child's mood. Switching everything on is tempting.

6. When your child asks the hard question

   Children ask the questions adults avoid, usually in the car. Is it cheating to use AI?
