My note to my kids about AI went viral with many parents. I touched on the note this week while taping an NPR segment β the topic clearly hit a nerve. I asked lots of people why. Put simply, parents don't know what to say β and kids don't know where else to turn β with so much changing so fast. So here's another look at AI and beyond. Hey kid, we gotta talk. I want to be blunt β and insanely useful β in helping you navigate the uncertainty, fast change and new opportunity of the current moment. It's bolded because it's so easy to lose hold of hope and action, a dynamic duo. Don't. Ever. First, a gut check. It's normal to be anxious. I see what you see: AI eating up work , phones eating up attention, politics eating up hope. That's a lot. It's real. For better or worse, you're living through history, with once-in-a-century changes happening in technology, politics, media and how you work. I can't sugarcoat reality. I'm not here to lecture or scold.β¦
