A lecture on what it means for children to have agency and how growing reliance on generative AI may shape the development of their epistemic capacities. The speaker is Carina Prunkl, a researcher in AI ethics and governance with a background in physics, philosophy of science, and AI ethics. She asks how reliance on AI relates to children's developing capacities for inquiry and judgment, and when reliance becomes overreliance.
