10. Most kids overestimate what AI can do, even those who think they know a lot about how it works.

Sixty-eight percent say they know a little about how AI works, and 21% say they know a lot. While the majority (71%) are aware that AI chatbots may use your prompts and input for training purposes, just 35% know that AI cannot tell the difference between things that are tru and things that are false.

The survey included the following definition of AI, which was shown to respondents to introduce the topic:

AI is a kind of computer program that learns from a lot of information. It can answer questions, create things, and help with tasks. For example, AI can chat with people, write text, make pictures or videos, and create sounds or music, among other things. Some examples of AI include:

> AI chatbots (such as ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, Claude, or Copilot)
> AI-generated results or summaries that appear on search engines (such as Google)
>AI image or video generators or editors (such as AI Gallery, Remini, Midjourney, Photoroom, Veo, Sora, KlingAI, or Canva AI)
> AI-powered learning tools (such as AI in school apps or AI academic tutors, like Gauth AI, Khanmigo, or Socratic Owl)
>AI writing assistants (such as Grammarly or QuillBot)

5/5 So when the people who prepared the survey attribute human cognition to "AI" in the language they use, what can we expect for a) bias in the survey answers b) how this report will be used by those with power in these systems? Yes it has some usefulness but is a questionable work overall imo

Tim Reierson@holdspacefree· Jun 14

3/ 2nd part of what I want to point out--that the backing warps the work. Here's how the survey defined "AI":

Tim Reierson@holdspacefree· Jun 14

I realize we have to take info about #AI use where we can get it, and parts can be true even from sources where the funding is tainted. But i feel compelled to point out 2 things. 1) funding sources that helped create this mess and 2) don't expect conclusions to be hard hitting. 1) funding sources:

3/ Here's a post that was taken down. It appears to give output from the #PAXIS ChatGPT app. A real danger is, given the complexity of immigration law & ICE tactics, this tech could give very wrong info. And your phone should be locked even if recording. Not fumbling with "AI" Q & A ! ! !

15/ More: "AI" startup: " #OutsideINsights was built for this exact problem: creating visibility into the 97% of a person's life that happens between..crisis contacts. By gathering simple 1-2-3 status signals fm the individual & their trusted support network, we give providers real-time insight.."

screenshot of LinkedIn post by Jeremy Ryan, founder & CEO CodePause Inc. | Creator of OutsideINsights. comments are on a Dec 2025 blog post by John Draper titled "Follow-Up Outcomes NO DATA - This metric is not tracked despite being the most effective intervention (80% prevention rate)."

"This article captures exactly the gap we've been working to solve at CodePause and OutsideINsights.

988 centers and crisis providers are doing incredible work, but the system still has no reliable way to track what happens in the hours, days, and weeks after the call, the period where risk often returns and follow-up care breaks down. That 'missing middle' is the same gap clinicians see between appointments, and the same blind spot payers face when trying to measure outcomes.

OutsideINsights was built for this exact problem: creating visibility into the 97% of a person's life that happens between appointments and between crisis contacts.

By gathering simple 1-2-3 status signals from the individual and their trusted support negwork, we give providers real-time insight into what's actually changing, before it becomes an emergency.

Within CodePause, these insights become part of a larger system of continuity, follow-up, and automated clinical workflows that support crisis teams, responders, and care partners.

Everything that happens between the call and the next appointment matters."

all the 'it's your choice' pro-"AI" responses here read like they were output from an LLM. disingenuous I came looking because this screen popped up. I want to point out to #Mozilla #Firefox that "AI" can't read. You know this and play up the #AIHype anyway. I welcome suggestions for alternatives

this town has a divided street downtown w nice grassy areas & trees like a park. but in front of the building where services exist for people w few resources, this is what city leaders decided to do. nowhere else so many ways to put people in jails & it's sad and unnecessary #Carceral msg recd

She adds, “we didn’t know, we were just asking for help to try in this society and the chances were none. It was clear”, Maya explained that since moving to the US she has experienced and witnessed how immigrant families are pushed into the criminal justice and “child welfare” systems due to rigid and unfair societal expectations that are grounded in racism and xenophobia. She reiterated that seeking help often resulted in her and others being funneled into punitive systems. All mothers explained how they felt like they were being forced into become a

“statistic” and shared the stress of having to live up to societal expectations—the need to be perfect. They discussed how in schools, their children were treated poorly because of this country’s rigid and inflexible ways of teaching. When there was any sense of deviation from the norm, immigrant children were forced into therapies and were given medication.
Further, Black and Latinx mothers in my dissertation shared experiences of being judged against unreasonable and unfair societal standards. In one example the mothers talked about how the system enacts rules that do not reasonably accommodate non-white non-western cultures:
Mel: I know, I understand and I accept it and everything you know. Like I try, and everything. I move the bed you know. And sometimes, sometimes they don’t... we don’t know. It’s always excuse, excuse, excuse. Always. Like this room is too small. But you know what, in Mexico we all have kids in one bed.
Jada: Right we do the same thing. Ten to a room.
Maya: That’s how we do it you know.
Jada: It’s your family. We don’t mind being close we like it.
