Send us Fan MailAI sounds smart. But that doesn’t mean it’s right. And it definitely doesn’t mean it should be doing your thinking for you.This week, Dhani Ramadhani joins the show. She’s a mom, a Harvard grad, a GovTech expert, and the creator of aiPTO, a resource built to give families real language for talking about AI at the dinner table. Dhani shares the THINK framework, five letters that put YOU in charge when you’re using AI. WHAT WE COVERThe THINK framework: Take time before you believe, How does it work, Intention, Never share private info, Keep your brain in chargeaiPTO: what it stands for (AI, Parent, Tech, Opportunity) and how families can  leverage their resources Deepfakes: what they are, why they’re hitting schools, and the Take It Down ActAI bias: how training data shapes what AI says and who it servesPrivacy: why your selfie might be training an AI model right now Agency: why YOU matter more in this world than you realizeFOR KIDS: TRY THIS AFTER THE EPISODEPick one thing in your life that bugs you (meal planning, homework, organizing).
