There are two problems that you should address that I see.
First, how do you teach them not to believe everything an AI says? Well, how do you teach them not to believe everything a politician says? An advertiser? A peer? Do that with AI, too. It's not a new problem.
Second, how do you keep them from being emotionally attached to an AI? Give them hugs. Give them eye contact. Give them genuine attention from an actual human - lots of it - and pray that it's enough.
All we have is a more efficient search engines.
Id be more worried about your kids falling down conservative thought pipelines than AI.
A true AI shouldn't have any sort of informational knowledge about any domain, as it should be able to figure out how to get that knowledge (which includes building internal simulation if necessary), when asked a question.
I don’t think this has much if anything to do with AI. It’s like my parents asking for advice on raising a kid during the age of the Pentium chip.
You teach them to be comfortable with uncertainty. One of the most valuable skills that a huge number of adults lack.
Show them that most things don’t matter a great deal in the long run. Let them do what they want in most reasonable cases.
Tell them you don’t know when you don’t now. Show them that being wrong is good.
Same as how Pentiums ended up reducing the number of some jobs and increasing the number of other jobs. Newspaper related jobs went down by a lot while computer programmer jobs went up by a lot.
There’s always competition coming from somewhere — and there’s always opportunity to be found.
What’s in your head (call that education if you like) remains the differentiator.
The certainty that kids require is to know know they are loved and provided for.
As humans we all have to chose at some stage a worldview that believes we are material objects or there is a God. I have chosen the latter and brought my children up with the knowledge of the Bible. I am certain God is with me, this life will have challenges, and I will go to a better place when I die.
Just a nit: that's depending on Judgment, there's also a worse place afterwards.
