Should Websites Share Their Secrets?

In today's digital world, websites and apps use AI to filter information, moderate content, or detect fake news—much like the behind-the-scenes work that makes your online experience smoother and safer. But imagine if websites were required to be as transparent about their AI tools as food labels are about ingredients. Just as nutrition facts help you understand what’s in your food, some believe websites should disclose what AI tools are shaping your online experience. Others argue it could be too complicated or unnecessary. It’s a big issue, and now it’s your turn to take a stand!

Your Task:

Take a Position:
Decide if you agree or disagree with the idea that websites and apps should have to list the AI tools they use. Do you think transparency is important, or do you believe it could cause more confusion than it’s worth?

Support Your Argument:
Write three reasons (one short paragraph for each) that support your stance. Think about how it affects users, the companies that run the websites, and the potential impact on the internet overall. Be creative and think critically—why is your side the best choice?
