Raising Kids in the Age of AI
About this episode
The episode discusses the impact of AI on childhood and education, emphasizing the importance of human connection and the potential of technology to enhance learning.
As AI tutors our children and algorithms reshape classrooms, two urgent questions are emerging: What does human connection have to do with raising a child—and how do we harness these new tools without letting them take over? Dana Suskind, a pediatric surgeon and social scientist at the University of Chicago, makes a powerful case in Human Raised that no technology can replace the relationships that wire a developing brain. And Salman Khan—founder of Khan Academy and one of Time's 100 Most Influential People—offers an optimistic road map in Brave New Words (2024) for how AI, used wisely, can personalize and democratize learning like never before. Two essential perspectives on the biggest shift in childhood and education of our time. 🎁 Save 20% on a Next Big Idea Club membership when you used code PODCAST at nextbigideaclub.com ✉️ Get big ideas in your inbox with our daily newsletter.
