The big idea
Some kids use AI to write mean messages, fake voices, or embarrassing pictures of others. The AI did not choose to do that — the person did. The harm counts the same.
Some examples
- Sending an AI-generated rude message anonymously is still bullying
- Cloning a classmate's voice to prank-call them can scare them badly
- Making a fake 'embarrassing' image of someone is still hurting them
- Group chats that pile on with AI insults are still group bullying
Try it!
Have you ever seen someone use AI to tease another kid? What could you do or say if you saw it again?
