Is AI coming for our kids? Why the latest wave of pop-cultural tech anxiety should come as no surprise

Retrieved on:

Thursday, September 7, 2023

The global panic around AI’s co-option of children’s play and cultures has manifested unpredictably.

Key Points:

The global panic around AI’s co-option of children’s play and cultures has manifested unpredictably.
Earlier this year, a Swiss comedian created a film trailer for an imagined remake of the beloved children’s story Heidi using the AI tool Gen-2.
This isn’t the first time AI has been used to re-imagine representations of childhood through the creation of cultural artefacts.

M3GAN and AI dolls

One of the most successful horror films of 2022, M3GAN, depicts the disturbing results of a grieving girl’s friendship with an ultra-lifelike AI-powered doll.
A clip of M3GAN dancing (her face expressionless as her body emulates moves from youth dance trends on social media) went viral to an extent the director called “unbelievable.” M3GAN strikes a cultural chord, embodying our discomfort with how AI co-opts and twists children’s culture.
The Artifice Girl (2022) depicts an AI-generated nine-year-old designed to lure predators online, highlighting debates about AI ethics.
When AI tools pervert children’s culture, they spark our deepest fears about AI’s inhuman modes of intelligence.

The long history of childhood techno-phobia

Cultural anxieties about AI’s infiltration of children’s culture continue a long history of pop cultural preoccupations with dangerous interactions between children and technologies that cannot be trusted.
With Poltergeist (1982), the world was enthralled by five-year-old Carol Anne’s haunting statement, “They’re here…” She was listening to poltergeists through the family’s television.
This resonated with parents concerned with children’s screen time, as well as video games, Dungeons and Dragons and Satanic ritual abuse.

AI is a lightning rod for fear

In May, AI companies made headlines when they linked AI to potential human extinction.
While experts dismissed these claims, perceptions of AI as a significant threat echoes the horrors of AI depicted in film.
While we shouldn’t be swept up by moral panics, children’s use and understanding of AI should be addressed.
UNICEF is embedding children’s rights into global AI policy and the World Economic Forum has released an AI for children toolkit.

Jewish creators are a fundamental part of comic book history, from Superman to Maus – expert explains

Wednesday, August 30, 2023

Jewish writers and artists have been a fundamental part of comic book creation since the early days of the industry.

Key Points:

Jewish writers and artists have been a fundamental part of comic book creation since the early days of the industry.
Their Famous Funnies comic book sold 90% of the 200,000 printed copies.
This led to numerous imitators, including New Fun Comics from National Allied Publications (later renamed DC Comics), which published its first issue in 1935.
In the 1930s, comic books reprinted comic strips that had previously appeared in newspaper humour sections.
Writer Roy Schwartz also sees elements of Jewish mythology in the character, as noted in his 2021 book Is Superman Circumcised?.

Other genres

Together, they brought romance to the medium in 1947 and made memorable monster comics in the 1960s.
Another popular genre was mystery comics.
In the 1970s, a number of notable female Jewish creators first had their work published in Underground Comix, including Trina Robbins, Diane Noomin and Aline Kominsky-Crumb.

Modern Jewish comics

Comics editor Corinne Pearlman drew a popular strip Playing the Jewish Card in the 1990s and now edits graphic novels.
She and other creators were featured in the 2011 exhibition and book Graphic Details: Confessional Comics by Jewish Women, curated by graphic novelist Sarah Lightman.
Lightman is one of the editors of a new follow-up anthology, Jewish Women in Comics: Borders and Bodies.
