Show HN: AI News for Kids
6seven.newsAI is changing the world, and most people aren't yet prepared for that future. That finally hit me when I read this article my Matt Shumer a few weeks ago ( https://shumer.dev/something-big-is-happening ) .
My kids are 10 and 12, and when I talked to them, realized that they don't get the actual important information about AI.
I went through a few iterations, and finally found a format in which I can get them to care, and actually want to consume information about AI and the future.
https://6seven.news curates actual important news, formats it in a kid friendly way, narrates it in 5 languages, and allows kids to safely interact with an ai about the news.
The site is built in a privacy first way, no data gets stored, nothing gets tracked.
I've only shown this to a few kids and parents, so any feedback is welcome. Interesting site. It looks like you did a lot of work making it. Perhaps I'm too optimistic, but I expect 10 years old to be able to read normal text, instead of highlighting every sentence are automatic reading it. Also, I'm not worried about kids learning AI. I expect my kids to know how to use AI better than me when they grow up. (I already ask my older daughter about C# and some advanced programming algorithms. I can still win against the young one.) i tested it with my kids, sure they can read much faster, but this format keeps their attention side note, I am sure the average hn readers kids don't really need this. But there are probably a lot of kids who's parents are not as savvy, that is more the audience I am targeting. Looks good, I see that many languages are now supported. Can Chinese be supported as well? :) i don't see why not, except every language adds a few cents to the cost. I got a similar question for Italian. If I get some adoption, I'll consider more languages.
