💬 Talk to an AI model of Kira

As a developmental-neuroscience-turned-family-futures coach, Kira joined AI On to share her playbook for raising AI-proof kids - children who can spot a nudge, out-question any algorithm, and turn every new tool into an advantage.

In this grounded, fast-moving interview, we cover:
✅ It's 2042: what will today’s toddlers inherit - and how do we prepare them right now?
✅ Guided micro-failures for preschoolers that turbo-charge executive function
✅ Majors (and alternatives) that compound option value in a skills-first job market
✅ How to teach algorithmic self-defense before kids can spell “recommendation engine”?

This is one of the clearest, most actionable conversations yet on turning AI disruption into a developmental edge for the next generation.

Kira’s voice is brought to life with ElevenLabs.
