Thank you for raising this point. In our literature search, we didn’t find any comprehensive studies that isolate the impact on children or adolescents, so we left that question out until stronger evidence appears.
That said, based on what we already know about how social-media use affects younger users, I expect the effect of LLM assistants to be at least as pronounced, once good longitudinal data arrive.
