Parents Who Build: Raising Kids in the Age of AI
A Community Conversation for AI Week
We’re the first generation of parents raising kids in an AI-native world. And many of us are taking an unexpected path: Instead of opting out of technology, we’re building new kinds of tools for our own children.
From apps that gamify chores, to AI-powered co-play games, to personalized storybooks and learning companions, parents are proving that building with AI can be a way to create more intentional, family-first experiences.
This is the beginning of a new wave of “Parent Tech,” led not by Big Tech, but by parents who know their kids best.
Why Join
Discover the new wave of parent-led innovation. See how families are already creating AI-powered games, stories, and tools at home.
Explore what’s possible. What should an ideal child–tech relationship look like? Where do we want to lead, and where do we let Big Tech decide?
Connect with peers. Meet other parents, technologists, and builders who are navigating the same questions.
Who’s in the Room
This session gathers product leaders, entrepreneurs, and everyday parents who have worked through the waves of web1 and web2, and are now turning their creativity toward the most important audience: Our kids.
Join us to meet fellow parents, stories about what we're build, how we're build, and we dream about raising our own kids in the AI age.
