Common Sense Media and OpenAI Propose Youth AI Protections

On Jan. 9, 2026 Common Sense Media and OpenAI announced the Parents and Kids Safe AI Act, a California ballot initiative that would require companies to identify youth users, block emotional manipulation and child-targeted advertising, and give parents more control. The measure would be enforced by the state attorney general, require independent annual safety audits, and backers must gather signatures to qualify for the November ballot.
