      Adults are stubborn and set in their ways. Kids are easier to mould to new ideas.

      If they can get the kids hooked on AI tools, they’ll run with it until they’re old enough to be making the decisions and by then they’ll want the tools they’ve grown up using: AI.

      It’s a marketing strategy, and an effective one at that.

      That, and Altmans probably got a comfortable seat on the Epstein list.

      Avoiding the obvious reference to fiddling, I think these tech companies need kids to be as reliant and addicted to their products as possible. TikTok and Youtube were the trailblazers in the electronic addiction economy.
