In this episode, Laurna and Gemma explore the growing use of AI-generated images and text within the babywearing world — from social media content to education, marketing, and beyond.

As babywearing is rooted in real bodies, real babies, and lived experience, we take a closer look at what happens when technology starts to shape how information and imagery are created and shared.

In this episode we discuss:
🤖 What AI-generated images and text actually are (and how they’re showing up in babywearing spaces)
📸 The risks of unrealistic or inaccurate visuals — especially around positioning and safety
📝 AI-written advice: where it can be helpful and where it can fall short
⚖️ Ethical considerations — transparency, consent, and trust within our community
🌍 Accessibility and inclusion — could AI widen access, or create more barriers?

We also reflect on the importance of centering real-life experience, qualified support, and evidence-based guidance in a space where safety matters.

💭 Key takeaways:
• Not everything you see online reflects safe or accurate babywearing practice
• Real bodies and real fit checks matter — especially for safety-critical guidance
• Transparency around AI use helps build trust
• AI can be a tool, but it shouldn’t replace lived experience and professional support

💛 A gentle reminder:
If you’re ever unsure about a carry or fit, seek support from a trained babywearing consultant or local sling library.
