📢 Online Safety Alert: Talkie AI Chatbot

Dear Parents,

As we shine a spotlight on staying safe online this week, we wanted to take a moment to tell you about a relatively new app that you may not have heard of—Talkie.

What is Talkie?

Talkie is an AI chatbot app that allows users to:

• Create, customise, and interact with AI characters

• Chat with other users and AI characters, including those resembling real or fictional figures

• Earn rewards that can be converted into virtual currency

Potential Risks:

⚠️ The app allows anyone to create a chatbot

⚠️ Inappropriate content may still be accessible through filters

⚠️ AI chatbots may provide inaccurate or harmful responses

As there is limited advice available on this app, we wanted to bring it to your attention. Please take a moment to check in with your child about their online activity and discuss safe and responsible internet use.
