Manage episode 460307420 series 3523916
Join librarians Jessi and Erin as they sit down with Nick Tanzi, a straight-talking tech expert, author, and Assistant Director of the South Huntington Public Library, who admits he has a "love-hate relationship" with AI. From ChatGPT doing homework to AI chatbots giving questionable advice, Nick reveals what's happening in our kids' digital world.
Discover why Nick calls AI a "non-consensual relationship" that's invaded our lives, and learn how to turn this uninvited guest into a helpful tool for your family.
Whether you're AI-savvy or AI-scared, this episode cuts through the tech jargon to give you practical guidance on:
- Teaching your kids to spot AI's mistakes and biases
- Using AI tools together as a family (yes, like testing ChatGPT with questions you know the answers to!)
- Protecting your children from AI's hidden risks while embracing its benefits
