> I probably would have waited longer before putting a computer in my children’s pockets A part of me wonders how this consideration might stunt the child for "the near future to come" in a societal context. Sure, we could want our children to have similar experiences to our own. However, technology and at least in part related society advances increase at ever faster speeds. My grandfather could get a job by walking down the street and saying "hello" to a shopkeeper. Me? Not going to happen; "apply online" and maybe I'll get an automated, maybe even kind, rejection email about "skills" or "fit". My children? Some AI could automatically filter them in or out of internships and the like. What could a totally blank ghost town of lifetime data prior to 5, 10, or 15 years old do to someone in a completely, totally, all-encompassing digital age? Nevermind what this would mean for somebody running for political office.
