The education needs to happen, but not for the reasons they are doing it - kids need to know how ai works so they know *why* it doesn't in many cases. Disspelling the magic answer machine idea from everyone's minds starts with learning how it works and how it doesn't.

We don't need a new course for this. It just needs to be appended to existing information literacy courses

Thats the one thing that is a necessary out of all of this. Its already out there, so learning the fundamentals and its limitations is the best case. It should be highly applicable to the concepts of LLMs which are broader and can be used for good purposes. Of course, the techy kids and even teenagers may dabble in AI in their free time, with a bit more thought put in. Even if gen alpha isnt the most fond with AI.
