Everyone.AI was honored to launch the International Coalition for “Beneficial AI for Children”, co-led with Paris Peace Forum, during the AI Action Summit in February 2025 in Paris. Stay Tuned!

The Challenge & Our Mission :

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming our world, presenting unique challenges for children whose brains are still developing. During their sensitive learning periods, AI can play a beneficial role by supporting education and cognitive growth, but it can also be harmful if misused or poorly adapted to their needs. To ensure AI is a force for good rather than a barrier, it is crucial to combine technological innovation with a deep understanding of human development. A collaborative approach involving experts, governments, businesses, and educators is necessary to minimize risks and maximize benefits for the well-being of children.

Call for Action, Multi-Stakeholder Coalition for Beneficial AI in Childhood Development

AI is rapidly reshaping our world and how we interact with our environment. For children, however, those changes present unique challenges, as their brains are still developing. From birth to around 25 years of age, the brain experiences sensitive periods when learning is at its peak for specific skills, making it exceptionally adaptable but also leaving it particularly vulnerable in inadequately stimulating environments. AI holds significant potential in this context—it can either enhance development, notably through educational tools, or hinder it by reshaping the experiences that influence how children engage with the world and those around them.

To ensure AI supports rather than disrupts development, we must integrate deep human insight with technical innovation. AI can foster cognitive and socio-emotional growth, but only when it is designed with a deep understanding of human functioning. Unlocking its potential while minimizing harm requires building transdisciplinary collaborations across all stakeholders—including governments, international organizations, tech companies, investors, researchers, civil society representatives – NGOs, educators, families —to ensure the development, deployment and adoption of beneficial AI for children.

Everyone.ai and the Paris Peace Forum are co-launching a multistakeholder international coalition at the Paris AI Action Summit.
