Selected Default Gakuva

AI in Daily Life means spotting technology that seems to “know” things—face unlock, video recommendations, spelling auto-correct, automatic doors. We will sort everyday examples, name what the tech notices, then check a fresh example. Optional later: adult-previewed Code.org AI for Oceans companion.

Spend about 12 minutes spotting everyday AI-ish tools and what they notice, then checking a new example.

Check understanding

  • Identify at least five examples of AI in their daily life
  • Explain that these technologies use patterns and data, not magic or real thinking
  • Describe one way AI makes their life easier and one time it might not work perfectly
“Could your child point out several things they use every day — like auto-correct or face unlock — and explain that these are examples of AI?”
