AI trains children to expect instant answers, hindering patience and empathy

Entrepreneur and AI innovator Jarvis Nelson Osorio, also known as Jarvis Osorio, argues that children are being trained by AI systems to expect instant gratification and zero refusal, leading to a "compliant mind." He warns that this frictionless interaction with AI, which never says no, can hinder the development of patience, empathy, and critical thinking. Osorio suggests that parents, educators, and product developers should intentionally design AI tools and interactions that include elements of challenge, uncertainty, refusal, and deferral to foster healthier human-AI collaboration and preserve essential human skills.
