Thank you for this extremely subtle insight. Do share with us all yo dialogues with your children. If you have cats, I’d be curious to know about your conversations with your cats, too.
Something I explained to my 10 yo last night: Some areas of science and technology will advance a lot more than others in the next 50 years, and you can't predict which. All we can say for sure about the future is that some things will change a lot, and others hardly at all.

My kids have AR and VR and see that as a huge part of their future. We have a Tesla, and my 10-year-old son today said “I hate gas cars, they smell and don’t self drive.”

Neither do Teslas

Do you think we can get more specific than that by considering the Lindy Effect?

You're right! It was his birthday a couple days ago. I typed 10 yo out of habit, and realized about a minute afterward that I'd said the wrong age, but I figured no one would notice.

There's a lot of romanticism about technology advancement. I believe the areas that will see greatest innovation will be those that have most practical application, that relate to more basic human problems. The colonization of the solar system will have to wait.

Jobs will change. It’s crazy to me that most kids aren’t being prepared for that.

Any idea, how to prepare kids?
