    307: Ai Companions and the Future of Parenting

    Ai Companions and the Future of Parenting I was scrolling through TikTok when I came across a video by @nate.b.jones where he described a future where everyone had A.I. companions as the norm. Of course you need to check out his video, but it got me thinking.... What if we do have AI companions in the future? We aren't that far from that now. Teens use their phones for companionship more than ever before. What will this mean for my grandkids? What does this mean for my own children when they have to parent with A.I.? Join me as I explore the idea of parenting in the future with Artificial Intelligence at the forefront. The good, the bad, and the scary!   LINKS MENTIONED IN THE RECORDING https://theimpactfulparent.com/app Download the FREE Impactful Parent App! Available on Apple and Android App Stores.
