Content Submission Guidelines
We are extremely appreciative of the time and effort contributors dedicate to writing articles for us!
Due to our current capacity to review submissions, we are only able to accept contributions from those with substantial experience in relevant fields at this time. This isn’t due to a lack of interest in other valuable and passionate voices, but purely a matter of resource management.
Please note that, while we review all proposals carefully, we are only able to publish a limited number of guest articles at present.
Before you begin drafting an article for submission, please ensure that your piece aligns with our mission and theory of change, and that there are no conflicts of interest.
Please also note that articles on our website must not promote or imply our endorsement of a product or service.
All articles should clearly aim to contribute towards creating a safer and better AI future for children.
Articles must be written in a style that is accessible and clear to non-experts and those from non-technical backgrounds.
Articles should aim to present a balanced and fair perspective. However, please note that guest contributions should primarily focus on the risks AI poses to children, rather than on its opportunities (though positive use cases may of course be referenced to provide appropriate balance). We do plan to include positive AI examples on the SAIFCA website, but keeping guest articles focused on risks helps to prevent any unintentional promotion of specific AI products or services.
A few examples of the type of articles we’re interested in publishing — but please don’t feel limited by these:
- An experienced AI governance professional writing about a proposed government regulation that would help protect children.
- A PhD candidate writing about their research into how deepfakes could affect children and society.
- A psychology professor writing about the impact of AI "beauty filters" on adolescents.
- A child development professional writing about how children can form strong bonds with AI companions.
- A qualified grief counsellor writing about how AI griefbots could affect the grieving process for children.
If you would like to submit an article of around 800 - 1000 words, please email it to dan@safeaiforchildren.org, along with a short bio and a link to your credentials (for example, a website or LinkedIn profile).
Thank you!
