The Korea Information Society Development Institute (KISDI, President Sangkyu Rhee) held the third session of the "KISDI-Dongseong High School Education Program" on June 11 for students from Dongseong High School, located in Chungbuk Innovation City.

The program is a participatory educational initiative designed to foster problem-solving skills and policy-oriented thinking required in the era of AI and digital transformation. It is being conducted over a total of ten sessions, incorporating special lectures, discussions, and project-based activities.

During the third session, Dr. Seong Eun CHO of KISDI's Artificial Intelligence Policy Research Division delivered a special lecture titled "Regulation of AI Services: Illegal Information and the Protection of Children and Adolescents in the AI Era."

The lecture examined emerging social issues associated with the development of generative AI and agentic AI, including the creation of illegal information, declining information reliability, algorithmic bias, and emotional dependence on AI systems. It was noted that the reduced cost of generating illegal content through generative AI has exposed limitations in conventional distribution-focused regulatory approaches. The lecture also reviewed challenges related to AI hallucinations and the increasingly layered allocation of responsibilities among AI model developers, service providers, and platforms.

In addition, the lecture discussed how recommendation algorithms have created regulatory dilemmas between user protection and corporate autonomy. International cases were reviewed to examine regulatory approaches to protecting children and adolescents in AI services. The lecture emphasized the importance of considering the principles that should guide the use of AI during a transitional period in which new social norms are being established.

Following the lecture, students visited the KISDI Library and Exhibition Hall, where they learned about the institute's major research activities and organizational role. The visit provided an opportunity to deepen their understanding of information and communications policy research.

KISDI plans to continue supporting students in broadening their understanding of AI and digital technologies and policies while developing the competencies needed to navigate and contribute to future society.
