1. New technologies, new worries?

from Tech Shock - from Parent Zone Hosted by Parent Zone

In the first episode of a new series, Vicki and Geraldine take a look at the issues that will be looming large in tech for families over the coming months. We cover the metaverse - or, as Vicki prefers to call it, online immersive experiences; we consider how much money children are spending, making, and losing online; and we look at the implications of AI for children’s privacy. Talking points: Is ‘remember to turn on your boundary settings’ about to become every parent’s mantra? Are financial harms to children online a problem hiding in plain sight? How much trickier is AI going to make being a good enough parent? Tech Shock is a Parent Zone production. Follow Parent Zone on social media for all the latest on our work on helping families to thrive in the digital age. Presented by Vicki Shotbolt. Tech Shock is produced and edited by Tim Malster. www Twitter Facebook Instagram
