America.gov launched today--a DOGE initiative to use AI to deliver public services. Child lying facedown on a frozen lake as the image accompanying the question: "How can I invest in my child's future" is just incredible. Way to go AI

Image of a child lying facedown on a froze lake. above is the portal where you ask AI questions about government services. the question matching this image is: "How can I invest in my child's future?"

A friend informally polled our new first years about the social media ban for under 16s in an RM lecture and got basically unanimous approval of it, which is a little interesting! Is there any real data on what the kids think?
