I agree with this sentiment.

I've seen other parents create AI videos of their toddlers being visited at night by Santa. I've seen parents happily throw their children into AI video generators to entertain them.

People are using AI recklessly. I can't imagine stealing the gift of a child's imagination away from them and instead, replacing it with these hollow representations of reality. It disgusts me.

I use AI all the time for coding, but I've drawn a hard line at the point of intermediation with others.

Yep, we all thought giving young kids was "helping them learn to use computers to be ready for the future" too.

Some people learned that lesson and are now pushing back on letting their kids access AI. But not everyone.
