Distinguish generated patterns from verified knowledge and understand why confident errors occur.
A privacy-first lesson from the AI Mode track focused on what generative ai does.
Why this matters
Pressure around what generative ai does can make a young person feel that speed, secrecy, embarrassment, or punishment matters more than safety. Rehearsing a response creates time and preserves options.
Lesson outline
Leave, stop, mute, or delay the interaction before making another commitment.
Save the minimum usernames, links, dates, messages, receipts, or report numbers needed to get help.
Protect accounts, devices, money, location, and immediate physical or emotional safety.
Use the appropriate adult, platform, school, child-safety, crisis, financial, or law-enforcement route.
Practice prompt
Create a fictional scenario involving what generative ai does. Write the first safe action, the evidence worth preserving, the account or safety control to change, and the person or organisation able to help.
Use fictional or sanitised information. Do not place private, exploitative, illegal, or identifying material into a public worksheet or shared example.
