"AI literacy" has become the new "computer literacy" - a vague buzzword that means everything and nothing.
The real skill isn't knowing today's tools (they'll be obsolete in 6 months). It's pattern recognition: when to trust AI, when to doubt it, and when to walk away entirely.
We need to teach skepticism, not syntax.

In an era of rapidly evolving technology, we need to decouple *jobs* from *identity.*
Instead of asking kids “what do you want to be when you grow up?”, ask them what problems they want to solve, what skills they hope to learn and what creative ways they hope to change the world.

I don’t think teachers will be remembered primarily for their lessons. I think they will be remembered for their energy... and their attitude... and their relationships.
Lessons are important... but they don’t tell the entire story. The legacy of a teacher is more than that.
