ON_Discourse Breakfast Club for AI Leaders: My Kids Will Never Be Smarter Than AI

​Sam Altman says his children will never be smarter than AI, but they'll be "vastly more capable." Dr. Becky Kennedy calls this what it is: treating childhood as onboarding for economic performance.

​This breakfast is for the people living that contradiction. You spend your days building, funding, and scaling AI. You spend your nights wondering what it's doing to your kids. This is the conversation you're not having anywhere else.

​We're not talking about screen time limits or parental controls. We're asking harder questions: What do we know from the inside that most parents don't? What are we too conflicted to say out loud? And are we building the thing that makes our own kids less human?

​No panels. No slides. No sponsors. Chatham House rules. A small room of parents who happen to be building the future, being honest about what that means for the humans they're raising.

​Registration requires host approval.

​SPEAKERS:

​Our speakers include Matt Britton, whose book Generation AI digs into the first generation growing up alongside this technology, Michael Ventura, whose writing on "bro-botics" asks whether we're building tech that deepens human connection or replaces it, and Katia Beauchamp, who co-founded Birchbox, and who has built and operated category-defining companies, but comes at AI from a place of genuine concern — for herself, for her kids, and for what this means for all of us.
