Fake news and AI: How to strengthen the critical judgment of younger people.
Education in critical thinking is not an injunction to rebel against adults or authority, but an apprenticeship in autonomy. A child who knows how to say "no" with discernment is an adult who can protect his or her own convictions and values.

AI as a magnifying mirror of our learning weaknesses
And what if AI, far from dumbing us down, revealed our own cognitive flaws? Laziness, utilitarianism, impatience... So many shortcomings that it amplifies and reflects back to us like a mirror.

The challenge is to build a human-machine cognitive ecology in which AI enhances our intelligence without replacing it.
