Description

Zoey is a 14-year-old content creator with over 10,000 followers on TikTok. She says the platform offers her a creative outlet, and believes Australia’s upcoming social media ban for children under 16 is a mistake. “I think social media has been around for years, and it’s going to stay. And by taking under-16s away, you’re taking us away from part of the world.” To explore how Australians are being both helped and harmed by AI, social media, and other technologies, watch Insight episode Brain on Tech on SBS On Demand.
