The very obvious loophole is that a teen could upload a picture of someone else to get an account made.

...and everyone uploading pictures of their kids would have to keep their drivers license handy.

Yes. True.

I think if you use someone's photo for Facebook, they're likely to already be on the site.

You could also have the AI look at the photos that are uploaded over time and if they look very different from the person who supposedly created the account...and comments from others are not questioning why these are a different person.

Right now they don't have people vetting. Throw AI at it for non-perfect but better results. As long as it's not a gov site I'm okay with this. Got off Facebook in 2005 when the first of my relatives became racists.

I think only kid's driver licenses should be accepted... You should not be able to post a picture of kid on online.
