Nice comparison with the calculator, but AI’s on a whole other level, it ain’t just doing math. Personally, I think kids shouldn’t be using AI in school until they’re older.
Yeah, it's at the same level of worry as for social media and its potential detrimental impact on my son's mental development.
I haven't made up my mind yet on how to introduce it to his routine and when. The later the better, but armed with the tools to help him navigate this world, with me at his side. So probably not too late either when my companionship will have been replaced by his friends'.
That worry is probably why I'm drawn to this kind of content this days.

Exactly. We still don't let kids use calculator when they're learning basic arithmetic, so kids shouldn't be allowed to use AI until they're able to perform higher order cognitive tasks.
That being said, I agree with the overall idea that assignments are now going to have to be made more complex, to take into account the availability of AI.
