Welcome to The Real Work Podcast!

In this episode, we tackle The Real Work of AI Education with expert and visionary founder, Anu Hoysniemi.

In a world rapidly being reshaped by Artificial Intelligence, how do we equip our kids to explore this technology safely, responsibly, and smartly? Join Anu, the founder of AI Adventure LLC, a fast-growing company dedicated to helping children navigate the world of AI.

With over 15 years of experience in analytics, AI, strategy, and management consulting, Anu brings a wealth of knowledge to the conversation. She shares why she launched AI Adventure: to help kids build essential future-ready skills like curiosity, problem-solving, and critical thinking while engaging with AI. Learn about the success of her pilot programs and the expansion to 9 new locations this January!

In this episode, we dive into the core Myth Buster:

The AI "Blockade" Myth: Why blocking access to AI (like ChatGPT) in schools and homes is often an ineffective strategy against the 86% of kids already using it.

The Danger of Unsupervised Exploration: The risks kids face when experimenting with powerful AI tools without proper guidance on safety, ethics, and responsibility.

The Guide, Not Gatekeeper Approach: How parents and educators can shift from trying to restrict AI to actively teaching kids to use it safely, responsibly, and smartly.

Building the Future-Ready Mindset: Practical tips on leveraging AI to develop essential skills like critical thinking, digital citizenship, and problem-solving, rather than hindering them.
