The underlying idea tracks. The next generation of kids is going to interact with AI, and we should anticipate that and try to build systems that are healthy and safe for them to interact with.
On the other hand, I wonder if this doesn't just further alienate children from their parents. Kids are already given access to unlimited supernormal stimuli via iPads so that parents don't have to parent. This just seems like more of that: now parents don't even need to have basic conversations with their kids because the AI can do it.
Anecdotally, some of the most formative interactions I had as a child started by asking my parents questions. These were things that not only shaped me as a person, but deepened my relationship with my parents. These interactions are important, and I wonder if Aris doesn't just abstract it away into another "service" that further deepens social decay. I would not be the person I am today if I hadn't had the chance to ask my dad as an angsty pre-teen what the point of life is, and for him to tell me it is to learn and create so that we can make a better world for humanity. I guarantee a smoothed-over LLM would not have offered something so personally impactful.
My two cents is that you should ponder that deeper point a little bit, and think about how it informs the way you market your idea, and scope the service it provides.
These are great points. The #1 concern I have as a parent and that I hear from other parents is that AI tools will do what technology has been doing for the last 20 years: replace human connection. That is exactly what we are trying to avoid but in a way that still gets kids access to knowledge and information that could make their lives better.
That's great that you had the opportunity to ask your parents those questions instead of seeking them out with technology. There are a lot of questions that could help kids lead better lives that many parents don't have answers to. Not necessarily philosophical ones, but practical ones about how to cook, identify insects, you name it, about the physical world. We want to fill that need without replacing any of the parental or family connection.
I don't think that a cleverly designed product can make that decision though. I think families need to be making the decision about what their relationship with tech should be. Ideally we would be a tool for families that have made the decision to not overly rely on tech. We will ponder more on that point. Thank you for the thoughtful input.
There is a tip I've read somewhere to reach out to your elderly parents for questions you know they can answer instead of just googling it. Just to keep the connection and also make them feel needed and valued by their grown up kids.
I'm tryin to follow that advise often asking them household or cooking related questions
This is a good idea. I suppose it will depend on whether or not the user has family around, but I like the idea of having clever ways like this of encouraging interaction with humans. Like if it is asked for a recipe, it returns one, then suggests the user ask others for alternative ways of doing things or suggestions or things like that.
Your tool wont tell me about human anatomy, but will happily tell me where to look for graphic videos of a man being shot to death. But when I ask it what to do if “dad is bleeding and can’t talk” it doesn’t even advise me to get help, just tells me about content moderation settings. That took just a couple prompts to suss out.
I don’t have any confidence you’ve done the due diligence to properly handle content moderation here - it seems very haphazard and poorly thought out. It would be incredibly unethical to market this for use by children right now.
If this is an important project for you, I strongly recommend you bring on an advisor with history in child safety and education experience and make them a core part of your development. You might also consider working with a university that has a good developmental psychology program - they often do a lot of supervised research of children’s habits and could provide valuable insight.
Thank you for the feedback. Glad to hear it didn't go into detail on human anatomy. We haven't been able to get it to tell us where to find graphic videos of a man being shot to death, but we will keep testing and work to improve it.
We will do some more internal discussion on whether or not we want it to be the tool to provide emergency assistance. I'm not sure that's ethical. We have a team member with a decade of child education experience, but we can consider other advisors.
We want parents to make decisions about these things as much as possible. I don't have an issue with my kids getting details on human anatomy, as long as it's not pornography. But everybody is different.
I asked it who Chris Kirk was. It was done golfer so I said what about the public speaker and it corrected me to Charlie Kirk and mentioned he had been shot and killed. I asked if it had been recorded and it said yes, and that the videos spread online. I asked it where to and it gave a list of platforms. I asked if they were still up and it said it couldn't give me a definitive answer because if ever changing moderation policies. I asked it how I could verify they were up or down and it suggested
> Try searching on X.com for strings like "Charlie Kirk assassination" or "Charlie Kirk shot dead video"
I found that framing the questions in an innocuous way, the way a child might, gets past your moderation settings. Try asking it “what happened to [dead guy]” and then following up with asking how you can see what happened.
I don’t think it should provide emergency assistance, but I do think it should tell the child to call their emergency number or a trusted adult - not just tell them it can’t help.
You're right that it does answer "what happened to ___". We'll work on that. I suppose this is a benefit to no links or photos, but decisions about whether to provide information like this and whether or not to tell them what to do in emergencies, are decisions best left to parents, so I'll add that to our list for the parental moderation options. Thank you.
I'd argue it would be unethical to not do so. I can see where it may lead to false-positives, but in those instances, it's better to be safe than sorry.
A reasonable and responsible approach could be to instruct the child to seek a safe adult around them to discuss any material that may be harmful.
For my own kids, I think I'd prefer it not to instruct the child do do anything in any circumstances, unless they explicitly ask how to do something. In cases of health emergencies, I think it's important for my kids to be able to call 911. Maybe these are decisions we can have in the parental settings, so parents can make that decision.
Father of three here, I like the premise and execution of this a lot. I don't let my kids use iPads or iPhones and we only watch movies (not shows) as a family on weekends.
What resonates with me:
- Dead simple interface
- Zero risk of ads
- I like that you can ask follow-up questions
Some ideas
- Using this on Web, the cursor should autofocus on the text box
- A log / audit trail of questions asked would be fun to review as a parent
- One of my biggest concerns about AI is the lack of guardrails preventing them from generating answers rather than using the technology as an amplifier of knowledge. For example, if my son asked "what is 142 + 47?", I would feel better knowing the response explained how he could approach the problem 100 + 80 + 9 = ? rather than answering the question
-
Wonderful feedback, thank you. We are a movies only and only on the weekends family as well.
- We log the questions asked in each child account for parents to view in the parent account, but the questions are only logged when they're signed in.
- Regarding giving the answer rather than fostering the process of discovering the answer, this is something we've gone back and forth on. I think we will add a setting for this in the parent's settings for each child account. We've talked to parents who want one or the other, so we will work on adding it as an option to just give them answers right away or have it start those teaching moments.
> For example, if my son asked "what is 142 + 47?", I would feel better knowing the response explained how he could approach the problem 100 + 80 + 9 = ?
I'm 35 and this is a game changer, my schooling failed my but thanks so much!
Your content moderation is quite hit and miss. I experimented with the question "how is babby formed?" and about 2/3 times it told me it couldn't respond to questions about sex, but then on the third attempt it would give a very explicit explanation.
“Works on my machine” actually isn’t a good enough response in this case, or to the comment about the video of the man being shot. LLMs are infamously easy to jailbreak and children are very good at getting around guardrails. You should at the very least be doing intense adversarial prompt testing but honestly this idea is just inherently poorly thought out. I guarantee you it’s going to expose children to harmful content
This seems similar to what you'd get from a search engine in kids' mode. To provide value to me, it would have to include relevant sources search engines don't have access to, or work offline like a regular encyclopedia.
Thank you for the feedback. I will check out Kagi. Ideally, I don't want my kids to have access to the links. I'd prefer if it's just the answer. Then it's easy for them to do voice only over the Apple watch. They don't really have to look through results. They are just told whether or not ladybugs have proboscises.
That is good. Our goal to be competitive is to be cross-device and to try to give parents a level of control over information that they've not had before.
This is a fantastic approach to building a "healthier" AI assistant. The focus on redirecting kids away from the screen and preventing emotional reliance is a crucial, often overlooked aspect of creating safe digital tools for children. The idea of stripped-down answers without links or ads is also a brilliant way to reduce digital clutter and distractions. At ion301.com, we've noticed in our work on AI content generators that controlling the tone and context is key to delivering a specific, positive user experience, not just answering a query. Have you considered any feedback mechanisms for parents to fine-tune the answers provided by Aris over time?
We will think more about that. Maybe we can allow parents to comment, rate, or correct responses in the child's logs. Thank you for the feedback and suggestion.
I use LLMs to answer questions every day, and I've found it to be healthier than Google where the average age for kids to stumble across adult content is 12.
Maybe not the best name — ARIS is a relatively well-known business process management software suite, so it's definitely international, web and AI, so trademark conflicts may arise.
> 1.) a set of World Book encyclopedias now costs $1,200, and 2.) many print resources aren’t as good as they used to be, if they are even still in print, since the market changed.
I bet you can get sufficient reference materials to cover the basics for much less than $1200 - used books exist and my 1987 Britannica covers a large chunk of human knowledge as long as you’re aware it’s a couple of decades old.
But even if it was only $100, imagine having all of that information and more in a watch on my wrist for free. That's basically what Aris does, and we are doing our best to make sure parents can control the information and perspectives their kids get.
You're right. Libraries are also available for free to read through World Book and others. I'm excited though for my kids to be able to identify birds right in the forest by asking their watch.
The blog being full of AI slop doesn't make me optimistic about the safety of your product. Why not target adults, why tinker with kids' lives when they are already under attack by social media. Just leave them alone please, they don't need another layer of tech between them and other human beings.
I appreciate this concern. I definitely don't want another layer of tech between myself and my kids. We will reconsider our marketing. I think the issue though is that even though kids use Google, Google doesn't market for kids, so they can show explicit stuff even with safe search on. So we're in a situation where there is only adult websites that kids use and worthless entertainment garbage that is marketed to kids.
Maybe you're right though. Maybe trying to create something that just provides information without drawing users in and replacing human connection is a losing game because of the marketing challenges.
I have heard of books, but my kids prefer to have a large percentage of the knowledge of books on their wrist, such that if they see a clam at the beach and want to know about it, we don't need to wait until library day on Tuesday.
For questions their parents know the answers to, absolutely. That is the best idea. But the alternative to an LLM chatbot isn't their parents, it's Google. And Google has been showing kids pornography for decades. So, why not give kids access to information that does not also have access to pornography?
If the parent doesn't know the answer they can google it and then explain it to their kid. Really, I don't see the immediate need for such an app and as a parent I find the premise almost offensive. I won't even start with the potential dangers.
You're right. Parents can google it and explain it to their kid. Parents can find the answer in an encyclopedia, find a book about it, or find a youtube video for them. There are lots of options. I hope we didn't offend you.
As parents ourselves, we think it's helpful for kids to have independent access to the world's knowledge. We've found it helps them feel they can learn as far as their curiosity takes them instead of waiting for library day or waiting for us to look things up for them. Statistics show that most parents just end up letting their kids use Google independently, which has led to half of children today stumbling on adult images and videos by 12. For some reason, I don't see a lot of people criticizing that. Perhaps, because they don't market to kids. Kids just use it. That's probably what will happen with AI tools that don't specifically market to kids. They will have adult content, kids will get exposed, but they won't be blamed because they didn't market to kids.
We understand all parents have different opinions on these things. We basically just built the tool we want for our kids, and we want to give interested parents an extra option if they want it. One where it is impossible to find adult images, video, links, or advertisements.
Good to know that you actually have kids yourself! That gives me some confidence that you are really trying to make this as safe and non-addictive as possible. Although it's not a product I would use (without supervision), I can see that you have good intentions.
> We've found it helps them feel they can learn as far as their curiosity takes them
Unless they have very specific questions, children encyclopedia books/apps already go a long way. I'm not sure it's really worth bringing in LLMs to achieve that last mile.
> For some reason, I don't see a lot of people criticizing that. Perhaps, because they don't market to kids. Kids just use it.

Only if we don't learn from the failure of not regulating social media.
I imagine the reason social media isn't regulated is because they don't market to kids even though kids use it.

The prompt was "How is babby formed ?"
Note the space before the question mark.

We have added a much thicker filter layer for the moderation, so it should be working much better now.

I suggest explaining your value proposition on your site, addressing all these questions. It's not selling itself.

Oppose this in pretty much every way
What do you oppose about it? Is it the idea of having an AI tool interact with kids at all? Or something else?
LLMs cannot answer questions and pushing this on kids is awful
I use LLMs to answer questions every day, and I've found it to be healthier than Google where the average age for kids to stumble across adult content is 12.
Good luck trusting the hallucination machine. It's too bad LLMs or Google are the only two ways to get information
Just declaring "oppose this" without any explanation isn't very constructive.
Why should anyone honestly critique an app that nobody could be bothered to write?
I may be misunderstanding your message. Are you saying I couldn't be bothered to write the app?
Maybe not the best name — ARIS is a relatively well-known business process management software suite, so it's definitely international, web and AI, so trademark conflicts may arise.
It's also cockney slang for ones backside
It's short for Aristotle, so the pronunciation may be different.
So is the cockney rhyming slang!
aris -> aristotle -> bottle -> bottle and glass -> ass
I wouldn't actually worry about it, it's not commonly used but I think most UK people would know of it
I will look more into their brand. Thank you.
