Artificial Intelligence is changing all of our lives and the biggest changes are yet to come. Yet despite the revolution on our doorstep, few have looked carefully at the impact of AI on children. Dr. Mhairi Aitken has done just that and has evidence-based advice for policy makers and developers. 

Aitken is a Senior Ethics Fellow in the Public Policy Programme at The Alan Turing Institute, where she focusses on social and ethical dimensions of digital innovation. Aitken leads research on AI and children’s rights there, in addition to a data justice, ethics of Generative AI and emerging AI policy and regulation topics. She is particularly interested in the role of public engagement in informing ethical data practices and is a frequent contributor to media discussions on AI and data. She is a visiting senior lecturer at the Digital Environment Research Institute, Queen Mary University of London and an Honorary Senior Fellow at the Australian Centre for Health Engagement, Evidence and Values at the University of Wollongong, Australia.
