My 8yo uses ChatGPT to help with his math and English school work if he's struggling with a particular topic. This works particularly well with Custom GPTs (e.g. one tailored to being a Math tutor). It's like have your own one-on-one tutor that can explain concepts in different ways, set exercises and provide encouraging feedback, it's pretty neat and he loves it.

But yes, I have the same thoughts about what the future will look like when our kids are adults and how they should best prepare themselves for this. Being AI and tech-savvy seems a no-brainer. Thanks for the article.
