In this episode of the 'Early Education in the Age of AI' podcast, I explore the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and specially trained AI assistants built specifically for early childhood professionals. 


I breakdown in simple terms what AI is, how it's designed to aid, not replace, educators, and explore some common misconceptions you might have about AI usage in education. 


I walk you through simple ways AI can support your work as an educator in generating creative ideas, completing documentation, linking with frameworks, and creating opportunities for professional growth and skills. I highlight the importance of viewing AI as a collaborative tool and give you tips on how to use it responsibly and ethically.
