One morning at the homeschool table with a tablet, Finn and Clara talked about “real life first.” AI is a fast tool for math and reading, but it can be wrong, so kids should use it wisely and with a parent. Finn said, “Let's try it today!” Clara smiled and said, “Let's do it together.” By the end of the day, they both felt proud of the healthy choice they made.
