Youth-Centered GAI Risks (YAIR): A Taxonomy of Generative AI Risks from Empirical Data
summary
Built from 344 youth–GAI chat logs, 30,305 Reddit discussions, and 153 AI incident reports, the taxonomy enumerates 84 specific risks across six categories and four interaction pathways, highlighting new youth‑specific harms such as Mental Wellbeing and Behavioral/Social Developmental risks plus novel manifestations of Toxicity, Privacy, Bias/Discrimination, and Misuse/Exploitation. The project also produces a searchable spreadsheet of examples and definitions and a guardrail prototype for youth‑parent collaboration that won the Berkeley LM hackathon.
