What are your thoughts about kids and screens? The

0:02

issue is not screens. The issue is hypocrisy. You

0:04

can't talk about screens all day and say how shitty

0:06

they are and then when you have your friend over

0:08

and the kids are making noise you throw the iPad

0:11

at them. I just don't understand

0:13

why parents continue to blame technology

0:15

instead of themselves. And the second you blame

0:17

yourself, well then you can start controlling the

0:19

outcome you want. We

0:23

are getting better and better and better and better

0:25

at pointing fingers. It's the government's fault.

0:28

It's this religion's fault. It's this tech

0:31

company's fault. It's this app's fault.

0:33

It's this influencer's fault. We've gotten so

0:35

good at blaming

0:37

absolutely everything but ourselves that

0:40

we're starting to hit a tipping point. The

0:42

reason people are so unhappy is because

0:44

they're judging everyone. We're

0:46

all judging each other which is actually

0:48

just a tell that means you're judging

0:50

yourself. We're just in this

0:52

perpetual thing and so, you know,

0:55

I think screens are incredibly positive and

0:57

incredibly negative the same way I feel

0:59

about everything. I

1:02

think we have to start the beginning of a

1:04

new chapter in modern society. I

1:06

think it's time to start blaming ourselves. And

1:09

the second you blame yourself, well

1:11

then you can start controlling the outcome you want.

1:14

But blaming screens but then not

1:16

enforcing it in your

1:18

own home when you have 100% control

1:22

because you're worried about your child being

1:24

mad at you for a little while

1:28

seems soft. What

1:31

world do you think your children are going to be living in? Screens

1:34

are going to be amateur hour. If

1:37

the metaverse is right which I think it's very hard

1:39

to see a world of why it would not be

1:41

right because I would argue we live in the metaverse

1:43

now. How many hours are you spending looking at

1:45

a screen? So,

1:50

you know, like where do you think this is going? I

1:53

would be flabbergasted if in 60 years people

1:55

aren't living in a ready player

1:57

one world. It would make no sense to me. Other

1:59

than. and vacationing out of it. But

2:02

like, technology only goes

2:04

in one direction. We're not gonna ride

2:06

horses down the highway. It's

2:08

not happening. Just

2:11

a quick question about our kids. 90%

2:13

of what the kids are learning at school

2:16

is gonna be done by AI much easier.

2:19

You're very nice. Okay, 99%. So

2:22

my question is how can we direct

2:25

them into things that you think AI

2:27

is not? Because for me the future

2:29

is gonna be AI and human doing

2:31

things together. So what part on the

2:33

human side can we push out kids?

2:36

Giving someone advice on how to parent

2:38

their child is the worst. One

2:41

on one. Macro, there's clearly themes.

2:43

Couple things. Right now, schools

2:45

across the world are banning

2:48

chat GPT. What

2:50

can we do? We can push against the

2:53

schools and have a meaningful conversation. Here's what

2:55

I mean by that. Schools are

2:57

banning chat GPT because they don't

3:00

understand it. They're banning it because

3:02

they think it's cheating or it's

3:04

undermining what they're selling. They're selling

3:06

memorization of commodity of information. Schools

3:11

are selling for

3:13

our children to memorize information

3:16

that is commodity because it's at

3:18

the fingertips of our phones. Meanwhile,

3:22

chat GPT and AI is about to

3:25

teach the world the value of critical

3:27

thinking. Chat

3:29

GPT sucks if

3:32

you don't input thoughtful critical

3:34

thinking. So we have this moment in

3:36

time right now where

3:39

we can literally teach children how

3:41

to critically think. The singular

3:43

thing that actually matters when

3:46

we get older. Yet, we're

3:48

just watching and as a matter of fact,

3:50

most parents are cheering the banning of chat

3:52

GPT because they fear

3:54

new things. They're lazy to

3:57

look into it or they're just not thoughtful

3:59

enough to realize. what the fuck is going on?

4:01

So I think a couple things. One, it's

4:03

gonna be hard for you to find all the parents

4:05

in the school to convince the school not that, that's

4:07

gonna be hard. But what you do at home is

4:10

not hard. And it's no different

4:12

than screens. If a child feels from

4:14

a parent, when the school is

4:16

saying no to something, that they come home

4:18

and you're saying yes to it, and you're

4:20

teaching them, while you're learning yourself, by the

4:22

way, of how to use these tools, it's

4:24

invigorating, because most kids start off

4:28

not fully wanting to conform,

4:30

and then they're just beating down into it. And

4:32

then they become anxious because they want to conform

4:35

to doing well on something

4:37

every 90 days. And the whole thing

4:39

is just whack. So I think the biggest

4:41

thing you can do is try

4:43

to teach them how to critically think.

4:45

And I think AI is

4:47

the first scalable tool. I mean, you

4:49

could have done it with search, but

4:51

we almost became too commoditized

4:53

and we don't think of it that way. But

4:56

there's a lot of actual critical thinking in

4:58

search. Like, the better you are

5:00

at it, the better your results will be.

5:02

However, AI makes Google feel

5:04

like the encyclopedia. When

5:07

this is all said and done, we'll all be

5:09

telling our grandchildren, no, Google

5:11

was amazing. It's why we did everything. And

5:13

they're gonna laugh the same

5:15

way that we all laughed at the yellow pages

5:17

today. So I think doing

5:20

things with your children, whether it's hiking,

5:22

playing video games, anything you can

5:24

do with your child forms

5:27

a real relationship. It's just very powerful. Normally,

5:29

we've already done the things we do with

5:31

our children. But if you're able to go

5:33

with your child on this journey together on

5:35

how to become a critical thinker as

5:37

an inputter to artificial intelligence, it may

5:39

be one of the most fruitful journeys

5:41

you can go in. Thank you

5:44

very much. Cheers. Thank you.

5:46

Before you, before you, everyone. Before

5:48

you, please.
