How do I provide the right education to my children in the AI era?

I think the main thing happening in the AI era is routine jobs will increasingly be done by AI and people have to move on to things that people are really good at. And I'll give you two examples: In school, children study a lot of verbal and quantitative - that's what we are tested on the S.A.T. - but verbal needs to evolve from just being able to spell and put together sentences. AI can do that. It needs to evolve towards communication, connection, trust. This are things only people can do.

And then quantitative needs to evolve from arithmetic and doing math, all the way up to analysis, strategy, planning, curiosity, critical thinking and creativity. So, these are the things that we need to evolve our education so that our children can have skill set that cannot be replicated by AI. And those, after all, are why we are human. And hopefully that will bring education in the right direction.
