Is it a good idea to let a 16 yrs old use an AI assistant .i.e. chatgpt? (lemmy.ml)

What are pros and cons of doing this? What impact it will have on the personality / mind of the person down the line after say 10 yrs?

Yeah, I would heartily recommend LLMs being used in education as a tutor and "homework buddy". I find their interactive nature to be really useful for learning stuff - I'm always able to ask "wait, what did that bit mean?" or "Walk me through this part." The LLM isn't always right, but with that back-and-forth it's quick to catch errors.
