Youth AI Privacy Act

This bill sets rules for companies that offer AI chatbots when they know or should know a user is under 18. They would have to tell minors at the start of each session, and at least every 30 minutes, that they are not talking to a human. They could not advertise to minors, profile them, use their personal data to train AI, or use features like push notifications, usage rewards, or typing bubbles. The Federal Trade Commission, state attorneys general, and parents or guardians could take legal action for violations. The bill also authorizes $50 million a year for fiscal years 2027–2030 for research on AI chatbots and minors and adds AI chatbot questions to federal health surveys.
