07 December 2025 - AI News Quiz for Children Aged 14-17 Years Old

Welcome to the AI News Quiz for teenagers aged 14–17! Every question in this quiz is based on a real news story about artificial intelligence, from tools helping doctors in hospitals to big debates about rules and safety. You don’t need to know everything about AI already – this is your chance to explore what’s going on.

For each question, choose the answer you think is right. If you’re not sure, just take your best guess and see what happens. After you answer, you’ll be told straight away whether you were correct and you’ll get a short explanation of the real story behind the question. By the end, you’ll understand much more about how AI is being used in the real world.

1 .
How are some stand-up comedians actually using AI in their work?
To let AI perform whole stand-up sets with no humans.
To suggest joke ideas, while humans shape the final routine.
To manage ticket sales, lighting, sound, snacks and every club’s social media all at once.
To automatically boo any audience member who tells a bad dad joke.
On 3 December 2025, an Associated Press feature explained that comedians like Jon Lajoie and King Willonius use AI tools to help brainstorm jokes and create viral sketches. They say AI can help with ideas and visuals, but it isn’t truly funny and can’t replace human timing, risk or personality on stage.
2 .
In a big UK study, what did an AI tool for stroke patients actually help doctors do?
Choose the music playlist for the hospital waiting room.
Predict which patients will enjoy crossword puzzles.
Spot brain clots faster so more patients get clot-removal treatment.
Automatically write every discharge letter in rhyme and emojis.
An English study of the Brainomix 360 Stroke AI tool showed hospitals could spot stroke-causing clots much sooner and send more patients for thrombectomy, a clot-removal procedure. This meant many more people recovered well enough to live independently after a severe stroke, proving AI can genuinely improve outcomes when used carefully.
3 .
What is the UK government asking people to help with in its new self-driving car plans?
Picking the paint colours for every future robotaxi.
Choosing a cool nickname for the first British self-driving bus.
Writing a rule that all self-driving cars must play karaoke.
Giving views on safety rules so self-driving vehicles can be rolled out safely.
The Department for Transport has launched a “call for evidence” asking road users, disability groups and businesses how self-driving vehicles should be rolled out. They want ideas on safety checks, licensing and cyber security, so the tech can improve road safety and help disabled people travel without creating new risks.
4 .
What was the main warning in a new United Nations report about AI and countries around the world?
That AI could let rich countries race ahead while poorer ones fall further behind.
That AI will instantly delete all borders from every world map.
That AI will automatically share out money equally between all nations.
That only tiny island countries will be allowed to use advanced AI.
A new UN Development Programme report says AI could cause a “great divergence” between countries. Wealthy nations with powerful AI and strong tech skills might speed ahead, while poorer countries without data, skills or infrastructure get left further behind. The UN is urging fairer access, better rules and more global cooperation.
5 .
According to a new UK poll, what do most people say they want when it comes to AI rules?
A national “AI Day” where everyone must talk like a robot.
Free personal robot assistants for every household by next year.
An independent regulator with real powers to control AI.
A law that every AI has to write at least one hit pop song.
A poll by the Ada Lovelace Institute found that nearly nine in ten UK adults want an independent regulator for AI. People care most about safety, fairness and social impact, not just speed or profit, and they want a watchdog with real power to keep powerful AI systems in check.
6 .
What did a new UK school report say many teachers want when it comes to AI?
More AI training so they can teach and use it confidently.
A rule that all homework must be written by chatbots.
Robot teachers to cover every lesson while humans stay home.
Free gaming PCs in every classroom for “AI revision”.
The Pearson School Report 2025 found that many UK teachers don’t feel ready for an AI-heavy future. Only a small share feel confident teaching about AI, and lots of them say AI should be part of teacher training so they can use it safely and sensibly with students in different subjects.
7 .
Why is the UK actors’ union Equity asking film and TV performers to take part in a new vote?
To decide which AI voice should narrate every new movie trailer and all the behind-the-scenes extras on box sets.
To choose a sparkly new costume code for every sci-fi robot.
To let AI pick who gets the lead role in the next big drama.
To show whether they’re ready to refuse digital scanning on set to win AI protections.
Equity has launched an indicative ballot of around 7,000 film and TV members about AI. Performers are being asked if they’re prepared to refuse digital body and face scans on set unless producers guarantee proper consent, transparency and fair payment for any AI uses of their likeness or voice.
8 .
What were UK ministers and energy experts mainly trying to sort out at the latest AI Energy Council meeting in London?
How to get enough clean power for new AI data centres.
Whether every motorway should have a special fast lane for robotaxis only.
If all streetlights should be turned into chatty AI tour guides for tourists.
How to make a national AI that automatically orders everyone’s takeaway on Friday nights.
At the final 2025 AI Energy Council meeting in London, UK technology and energy ministers met industry leaders to talk about electricity for AI. They focused on speeding up grid upgrades and making sure there’s enough clean power for new data centres and “AI growth zones”, without overloading the wider national grid.
9 .
Why is the rankings site U.S. News taking OpenAI to court?
Because ChatGPT kept calling every university “Hogwarts” in its answers.
Because it says OpenAI copied its rankings and articles without permission to train AI.
Because OpenAI refused to design a custom chatbot just to boost its law school rankings and exam scores.
Because AI bots broke into its office and deleted all the printed magazines.
U.S. News & World Report has filed a lawsuit claiming that OpenAI copied and reused its college and hospital rankings, plus other articles, without permission to train and run models like ChatGPT. The case is part of a growing wave of copyright battles over how AI companies use news content and data.
10 .
What is the big idea behind Wales’s new national AI plan?
To turn every Welsh valley into a giant test track for racing self-driving hover-buses all weekend long.
To force every citizen to learn three coding languages before they’re allowed to watch any streaming TV or play online games.
Use AI responsibly to boost Wales’s economy and public services.
To build a secret underground robot city beneath Cardiff where humanoid assistants practise serving tea in perfect Welsh accents.
The Welsh Government has published its first national AI plan. It says Wales wants to harness AI responsibly to grow the economy, improve public services in Welsh and English, and build people’s digital skills, while protecting fairness and future generations from any harmful effects.
