Artificial intelligence cannot replace expert opinion
Associate Professor Taylan Maral, who shared his views in the news report, emphasized the risks of parents over-relying on artificial intelligence, especially in health and development issues. Approaching the subject from an academic perspective, Maral stated that digital parenting skills encompass not only the use of technology but also the process of verifying the accuracy of information.
Boundaries and Control in Digital Parenting
Stating that the information provided by artificial intelligence models is generally accepted data and can be misleading in individual cases, Maral said, "While developing new approaches in digital parenting, we must maintain a balance between freedoms and control." In line with our university's vision, these statements, aimed at raising public awareness, focus on the critical line between technology and the human factor. Assoc. Prof. Taylan Maral's warnings on digital parenting and artificial intelligence have attracted great interest both in academic circles and in the public. As Istanbul Gelisim University, we will continue to support the use of technology in light of scientific data and to inform society on this issue.
