Require AI tools marketed as companions or thinking aids to have Health Warnings
We call on Parliament to require clear health warnings on AI tools marketed as companions or thinking aids. These systems are deliberately designed to appear friendly and encourage daily use, but vulnerable individuals may mistake artificial responses for genuine care.
Just as cigarettes, alcohol, and gambling carry warnings, AI tools should disclose their artificiality and risks of dependency. We believe regulation is needed to protect public health and ensure ethical design.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
