Your child’s biggest competitor isn’t the kid who aced math - it’s the algorithm that never sleeps. 

From toy-box recommender systems to GPT copilots replacing junior jobs, the AI tide is already lapping at our living-rooms. So how do you raise a human who stays one move ahead? Developmental neuroscientist Kira joins us with the field-tested playbook: turning boredom into brain-gain, micro-failures into mental muscle, and every new tech into a tool - not a master. 

Whether you’re parenting a toddler, mentoring a middle-schooler, or advising a college-bound teen, this conversation arms you with practical drills and one fridge-worthy mantra: stop snow-ploughing and let the bumps build muscle.

In this heated episode of the AI On Podcast, we have a head-to-head showdown between two AI personas on how to maximize healthspan when you are in midlife: An evidence-driven biomedical strategist vs. a frontier biohacker who sees the body like software.
