AI has become as natural as water and oxygen to our children-our AI-native generation. This book is hand-drawn with watercolour to share with children the human values in the age of AI, helping children collaborate with AI with healthy boundaries.
By telling a mystical fable, the book will introduce a few key AI ethics concepts:
- AI consumes power
- AI is not free
- AI hallucinates sometimes
- Use critical thinking in judging AI answers
- Experiment in the real world
- Be patient and enjoy the process of finding the answers
The picture is lively enough for young children to flip through with short paragraphs for joint parent-child narration. The book also comes with a Q&A section at the end, to help parents answer hard questions from children, such as "Is AI my friend?" or "Is AI right?".
The book is authored and illustrated by Rex Lam, a speech therapist who switched careers into digital innovation, believing in the vision of AI for humanity. Since childhood, Rex has been passionate about painting children's illustrations, hence spending a year drawing this watercolour illustration storybook. Hope you enjoy this with your kid of AI-native generation.
