A lot of things could go wrong when we're talking about entrusting our kids to the care of robots, but one possibility we don't often consider is what if kids start to prefer the predictable, reliable company of AI over humans?
broadcasters, nor online game manufacturers are deemed liable when children are left for too long in front of their television. Robotics companies will want to be in the same position, as no company will want to be liable for damage to children, so it is likely that manufacturers will undersell the artificial intelligence and interactive capacities of their robots. It is therefore likely that any robots will be marketed primarily as toys, surveillance devices, and possibly household utilities.
When it comes to liability, we should be able to communicate the same model of liability applied to toys to the manufacturers of robot nannies: Make your robots reliable, describe what they do accurately, and provide sufficient notice of reasonably foreseeable danger from misuse.
These kinds of immunities from legislative bans could very likely extend to robots as they become more essential economically and politically and more embedded in our daily lives.have significant implications for childcare workers and wages. Nurseries may be able to support more children, and more people could be attracted to the field or prove competent in it with the addition of AI assistance.
Of course, even if we discover correlations between children with a preference for interaction with AI and robots and the expression of other forms of introverted behavior, this does not mean that AI and robots are necessarily bad for these children. Indeed, these devices may provide stability and comfort that reinforce some children’s sense of self-worth.
