Google’s AI Overviews and its AI Mode have been identified as posing an “unacceptable risk” to children, according to a comprehensive report from a leading nonprofit organization. The study reveals that both features demonstrably fail to provide appropriate responses to young people experiencing crises, with concerning findings that include “reinforcing signs of psychosis and mania” and “validating disordered eating.”
