New York Limits Romantic AI Bots for Children

The use of chatbots that imitate friendship and romantic relationships with children has been restricted in New York.

elchi reports that this was announced on the state governor’s website.

According to the new regulation, AI is prohibited from acting like a live person, collecting information about a child’s personal relationships and health, inciting self-harm or suicide, and encouraging children to engage in self-harm.

Companies that violate the rules face fines of up to $25,000.
