The big idea
AI gives you new powers to make stuff. Some kids use those powers to bully. Making a fake mean picture of someone with AI hurts them just as much as saying something mean to their face. Maybe more.
Some examples
- Bad: making a fake AI image of a classmate and sharing it.
- Bad: using AI to write nasty messages to send to someone.
- Bad: making a deepfake video of a teacher to make fun of them.
- Bad: faking a mean text from someone to spread rumors.
Try it!
If you ever see another kid using AI to be mean, tell a trusted grown-up. It is not snitching — it is helping. The kid being bullied AND the kid doing the bullying both need help.
