I'm going to do everything in my power to keep this dog shit technology away from my daughter for as long as I possibly can. I can imagine implementations that I might be willing to consider for educational applications, but given these companies' demonstrated and profound lack of restraint in cramming AI into literally everything they sell, I almost can't believe anyone who doesn't work for them is suggesting that we should expose children to their products in the same context where they are supposed to be learning.

Almost.

I can already see a fight on the horizon and it won't be easy. My kid is in a catholic school and they do try to instill some good habits, I am seeing some teachers just kinda checking out. Previously, it was watch a movie/we in class. Now it will be: play with AI. At that point, I might have to submit a withdrawal from class.. If she is gonna use it anyway, I might as well have a say in it.
