Is AI the Biggest Threat to Our Kids… or Their Greatest Tool?

Is AI the Biggest Threat to Our Kids… or Their Greatest Tool?

Author: TRAIN HARD Media September 2, 2025 Duration: 1:03:20

This week, the Home Team takes on one of the hottest debates for parents right now: AI. Is it stripping kids of critical thinking skills—or can it actually be harnessed as a tool for growth?

We wrestle with the balance between protecting our kids and preparing them, where AI differs from past tech advances, and whether this is really a technology problem or a human problem.

Plus, Jason recaps his experience at Master Worlds—gi mishaps, pulling guard (or not), the competition mindset, and lessons learned on and off the mat.
