Internet users are getting younger; now the UK is weighing up if AI can help protect them

UK regulator Ofcom is planning to launch a consultation on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the fight against harmful online content, particularly content that harms children. The consultation will explore the current use of AI tools and assess their accuracy and effectiveness in identifying and removing illegal content, such as child sex abuse material. Ofcom intends to make recommendations on how platforms should assess and improve their content detection capabilities, potentially leading to fines for non-compliance. The move comes as more young children in the UK are using the internet, with a significant number owning smartphones and engaging with social media.
