Totally agree!

For anyone who still thinks kids should use AI, another argument to make is we are still figuring out AI (hence the constant debate on it, hype, uncertainty, boundaries of its capabilities etc etc). I don't think anyone with right mind can disagree with that. Keeping that mind, wouldn't it make sense to at-the-very-least tread with caution when it comes to kids.

Whether they should or not is a moot point. They are using it and we need to figure out how to organise society to deal with it.
We're in like year 2 or 3 of LLMs being serious tools, still with many disadvantages over humans. There's plenty of time to figure things out, we don't need to experiment on children right now.
Return to pen and paper, particularly for testing. Extend school time for doing supervised "homework" that doesn't involve the Internet.

Like that?
