Genny Ngai Shares Insights on Child Safety and AI on Women in AI Blog
Morrison Cohen White Collar and Regulatory Enforcement Partner Genny Ngai published “Child Safety Takes Center Stage” on the Women in AI Legal Insights Blog, examining the heightened scrutiny facing AI companies over risks to minors and other vulnerable users.
Genny, a former federal prosecutor with over 10 years of criminal and civil litigation experience, outlines how private litigation, federal and state enforcement, and new legislation are converging to hold AI developers accountable for alleged harms arising from AI chatbots and companion systems.
Key takeaway: For AI companies, including downstream licensees and operators, proactive, well-documented safety and compliance measures and demonstrable good-faith efforts to mitigate risk are essential. “Child safety is a bipartisan priority, and stakeholders, including regulators, have made clear that algorithmic design and safety choices—not merely individual misuse—are the focus of future enforcement and litigation,” Genny wrote. “Building these safeguards today can establish a key foundation—and defense—for future inquiries and enforcement actions.”
