Google said on Thursday that it is making its generative AI search experience available to teens.
The AI-powered search experience, often referred to as Search Generative Experience, adds a conversational mode to Google Search so that you may have a natural dialogue with Google about a subject.
Teens in the United States between the ages of 13 and 17 who have a Google Account will be able to sign up for Search Labs this week in order to use the AI search experience on the Google app or Chrome desktop.
“Generative AI can help younger people ask questions they couldn’t typically get answered by a search engine and pose follow-up questions to help them dig deeper,” Senior Director of Product Management at Google Hema Budaraju wrote in a blog post.
According to Budaraju, Google has guardrails in place to stop inappropriate or hazardous information from showing up.
For outputs involving illegal or age-restricted substances or bullying, for example, the corporation has implemented tougher precautions.
Google says that after the launch of SGE, it has discovered that the experience is more popular among younger users. Hence, the expansion to teenagers.
According to Google, people between the ages of 18 and 24 have the greatest satisfaction ratings since they tend to ask inquiries more casually.
