What AI Could Be Doing to Our Kids
In this episode, Dr. Becky talks with former Wall Street Journal tech reporter Joanna Stern about her year‑long experiment of letting generative AI permeate every corner of her home, including interactions with her children. They explore how AI chatbots in toys and devices can offer constant, frictionless conversation, but risk replacing the messy, human process of emotional learning that children need. Stern emphasizes that while AI can make tasks easier, the lack of “friction” – the imperfect, delayed, and sometimes wrong responses from real people – may hinder kids’ development of resilience and empathy. The conversation also touches on broader societal AI invasions versus the choices families make to invite AI into daily life.
