What I Tell Kids About AI
The post offers a comprehensive, free‑resource guide for teenagers and their parents on how to understand, learn, build, and play with AI while keeping human skills front‑and‑center. It outlines a staged approach—understand AI fundamentals, use AI as a thinking partner, create projects, and explore creative tools—highlighting courses like Elements of AI and practical tools such as NotebookLM, Perplexity, and Replit. The author stresses staying on free tiers, rotating models for unlimited access, and funding any paid subscriptions personally. The overarching message is that human activities and critical thinking must precede AI reliance.
