    I've been worrying about compensating for my own domain lacking where my daughter's education is concerned, so had thought that a grounding in maths and logic and programming would be best.

    But in this age of LLMs I realise that's redundant.

    I need to focus on language, comprehension, composition of thought and the ability to abstract concepts.

    I'm so fucking worried for her future.

    • Teach her how to learn and foster a culture of curiosity then she will work the rest out. Maybe keep an eye on her self esteem and friend groups is my advice.slappy
    • Oh yeah, I'm talking purely edumacational here, but I'm already seeing the self esteem issues beginning to peek through...Nairn
    • ..but I've always been sure to enxourage that she engaged with friends as much as is comfortable, and not just focusing the same subset all the timeNairn

    • Have her learn piano. It’s great for activating all kinds of wonderful parts of the brain at once.monospaced
    • I agree that in the world of corner cutters abusing ai to get through life, the ability to write well and expound on abstract concepts is critical.monospaced
