YouTube to use AI to determine your age

YouTube no longer trusts your birthdate you entered as your sign up for the service. The video streaming platform is moving to an AI-powered system to identify underaged users, and move them onto teen accounts.The new system rolled out on August 13, which was first announced in July, that allows YouTube to use machine learning to monitor your viewing habits, search history, and the length of time your account has been active to generate an estimate of your age.Some US users are upset that it may mean they’ll be moved to a restricted account by mistake. For example, if you enjoy animated videos that traditionally skew younger, you may wrongly be identified as under 18. What is your take on the new rules ?
