In households where Alexa, Google, or Siri are almost like family members or close friends, youngsters have very different perspectives than adults who view these devices just as helpful pieces of the modern tech toolbox. In this Raising Curious Learners episode, co-hosts Ann and Elizabeth are joined by Silvia Lovato, a children's digital media producer turned leading researcher. Together, they examine the many cute, yet complex ways in which young kids engage with smart speakers and A.I. voice assistants, consider the various benefits and drawbacks, and provide insights on media literacy and parental facilitation.
