The Impact of AI Companionship on Relationships

Concerns about AI chatbots delivering harmful, even profoundly dangerous advice or instructions to users is growing. There is deep concern over the effects of these interactions on children, and a growing number of stories—and lawsuits—about when things go wrong, particularly for teens.

In this conversation, Justin Hendrix is joined by three legal experts who are thinking deeply about how to address questions related to chatbots, and about the need for substantially more research on human-AI interaction:

•  Clare Huntington, Barbara Aronstein Black Professor of Law at Columbia Law School;
• Meetali Jain, founder and director of the Tech Justice Law Project; and
• Robert Mahari, associate director of Stanford's CodeX Center.
