I have a new piece out in Tech Policy Press on the opportunity for accelerating research into the impact of technology on youth mental health, specifically the impact of AI chatbot use.
Building evidence and driving toward scientific consensus around AI’s impact on youth mental health is not going to be straightforward, but industry can and should engage with and support better research, says Betsy Masiello, cofounder of Proteus Strategies.

It’s not just bad word lists: There’s a massive opportunity to build T&S tools as common goods, in public.

@derekslater.bsky.social @betsym.bsky.social wrote a whole report about this: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/in-depth-research-reports/report/scaling-trust_annex2/

Was a fun privilege to work on the tooling annexe for this report with @derekslater.bsky.social — I learned so much. Hope this broader report is widely read, esp by policy thinkers who have never done trust & safety work themselves.
