What makes you think AI isn’t damaging for kids? Teaching them to outsource their thinking to AI can’t be a good thing.
Nothing can be as bad as modern social networks. Unless they start pushing manipulation, brain rot, gambling and porn into each AI answer.
I'd say nothing damaged me more than the 90s unrestricted internet and extreme sites.

I find both arguments asinine: why would socials for adults or outsourcing thinking by adults be good?
I agree with you - but there's also a lot of people that think AI is just brainrot - maybe worse, so, there's that...
Indeed, and then there are dozens of grieving families from folks driven mad by LLM helping murder their children.
LLM use makes people feel more productive, but provably most lose 17% of their core skills performance. Also, homework cheats improved scores at some schools, but saw 35% drop in exam scores. LLM literally makes young people dumber.
We should never kink shame adult cognitive dildo choices. As the same folks sound like a tobacco lobbyist marketing kicker. =3
