In childhood education, you're developing complex thinking pathways in their brains. (Or not, depending on quality of education)

The idea here isn't to corral their thinking along specific truths, as it sounds like you're interpreting it, but rather to foster in them skills to explore and evaluate multiple truths.

That's doable with current technology because the goal is truth-agnostic. From a sibling comment's suggestion, simply asking LLMs to also come up with counterfactuals produces results -- but that isn't their default behavior / system prompt.

I'd describe the Brookings and GP recommendation in terms of adjusting teenager/educational LLMs by lessening their assumption of user correctness/primacy.

If a user in that cohort asks an LLM something true, it would still help their development for an LLM to also offer counterfactuals as part of its answer.
