Kids don’t ‘Google it’ anymore. AI chatbots taught them to ‘search it up’ instead
Younger generations are replacing 'Google it' with 'search it up' as AI chatbots and voice assistants influence their problem-solving behavior. Research shows AI tools like ChatGPT and voice assistants are reshaping language, with terms like 'delve' and 'meticulous' entering everyday speech. Kids using AI tools increasingly adopt platform-agnostic language and command-style phrasing.
