Introducing Our New Pocketbook: “Intro to AI for Parents”
At ReadyAI, we’ve spent years bringing artificial intelligence education to young minds across the globe. But in all our work with kids, we’ve realized something important — parents are just as much a part of this journey as their children. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce our latest resource, Intro to AI for Parents: A Pocketbook, a fun and practical guide designed to help parents confidently engage their kids in conversations about AI.
