Quotes by Chen Bareket
Selected excerpts from the interview.
Teaching kids prompting without an ethical compass is like giving them a driver's license with no brakes. The system focuses on technical efficiency, on producing fast output, instead of teaching them to understand the consequences of their actions.
We used to teach children how not to become victims of strangers. Now that they've become active producers of algorithmic content at the click of a button, education has to shift from passive self-protection to active responsibility.
Our challenge isn't to raise fast operators of AI, but responsible human beings who won't use it to cause harm.
Conversations about AI in schools tend to focus on skill. Our work starts with the question that comes first: what the tool means, who it could hurt, and how to build habits of responsibility before habits of speed.
