“6 个月后，我们将开始因 AI 而失去工作”——Alpha School 创始人麦肯齐·普莱斯

她就这么做了，结果特别成功。

And she did this, and it worked so well.

而且她的产品真的特别棒。

And, actually, her product was so good.

后来她开始走进越来越大的健身房和体育赛事。

She ended up getting to go to larger and larger gyms and athletic competitions.

不过呢，这个故事也有个意想不到的副作用。

Now here's the only problem, the the backfire of this story.

有一次她去参加一场体育赛事，卖她的生酮饼干、椰子水和饮用水，赚了将近一千六百美元的利润。

She went to an athletic competition where she was selling her paleo cookies and her coconut water and water, and she made about $1,600 in profit.

问题就出在这儿。

Well, here's my problem.

六岁的小孩会觉得，我这辈子不用再干活了。

Six year olds like, I'm set for life.

我再也不用工作了。

I never have to work another day in my life.

他们根本没意识到，人家付钱是因为他们太可爱了，方方面面都讨人喜欢。

They don't understand that they're getting paid because they're so cute and everything.

不对。

No.

不对。

No.

不对。

No.

那其实是

It was

产品确实很好，整个过程也是一次特别棒的锻炼。

a really good product, and it was it was a great exercise.

但后来我就想，咱们可以这么做。

But then I was like, we should do this.

每个周末都可以搞一次。

Like, you could do this every weekend.

她问我：为什么？

She's like, why?

我就是买了个芭比娃娃，真的。

I I like, I I bought a Barbie doll.

这钱我还能干嘛呢？

What else am I gonna do with this money?

这事儿挺有意思的。

Which is funny.

但我觉得，这些例子说明，你可以从孩子的兴趣出发，想想怎么把它做得更深入。

But I think these are examples where you can take an interest that somebody has and figure out how do you take that further.

你知道吗？现在有些特别离谱的生意，比如小狗瑜伽、山羊瑜伽，老板们干得还挺不错。

And, you know, I I'll tell you, there's some crazy puppy yoga and goat yoga businesses that business owners are probably doing pretty well at.

所以我们有时候太低估孩子的能力了，其实我们需要换个角度看问题。

And so I think sometimes we underrate what kids could be capable of and what we need to do is reframe.

孩子对某件事产生了兴趣。

There's some interest that a kid has.

那我们该怎么利用这一点呢？

How do we take that?

电子游戏就是另一个例子。

Video games is another example.

很多父母都在说，真希望孩子能离开游戏机。

I mean, there are so many moms and dads out there going, I wish I could get my kid off the game console.

他们就只想打游戏。

All they wanna do is play video games.

我们学校有些男孩甚至直接说，要是能拿工资整天打游戏，那就是我最想做的事了。

And we we see boys come into our school who are literally will say, if you could just pay me to play video games for my whole life, that's all I'd wanna do.

这简直是世界上最棒的工作。

It'd be the best job in the world.

但当你开始想，其实呢？

And then when you start saying, you know what?

我们可以教你怎么写代码来制作游戏。

We could, like, teach you to vibe code a video game.

然后你可以办个活动，当个解说员，参与这些事情。

And then maybe you could, like, host an event and you could be the shout caster and, you know, work on these things.

突然间，孩子们对正在做的事产生了兴趣，开始意识到：天哪。

And suddenly these kids get excited about something that they're doing and they start realizing like, oh my gosh.

太好了。

Great.

我们有个学生，以前就是那种天天说想一辈子打游戏的孩子。

We have a student who, you know, was absolutely that boy who would say I would play video games every day for the rest of my life.

现在他却说，我根本没时间打游戏了，忙着创业，做这些事呢。

And now he's like, I'm too busy to play video games because I'm out building this business, you know, and doing these things.

如果你能激发孩子们去

And, you know, if you can inspire kids to

他们会愿意去挑战困难的事。

It's gonna go try something hard.

这正是我看到的。

That's what I'm seeing.

对吧？

Right?

别一上来就刷视频、打游戏，而是要深入幕后，成为内容的创造者。

Not just go straight into this like scrolling, playing the game, but go behind the scenes and become the creator behind your.

你具体是做什么的？

What is it you do?

我觉得这特别重要，尤其是在当今社会，人们很容易就沦为消费者。

And really, that's what what I think is another thing that is so important to teach young people, especially in our society today, where being consumer is so easy to fall into.

你可以刷抖音。

It's like, okay, I can just I can scroll TikTok.

你可以打游戏。

I can play video games.

你可以闲逛看YouTube。

I can just hang out and watch YouTube.

我们真正该做的是培养创造者和贡献者。

What we need to do is instead create creators and contributors.

你该怎么走出去，成为一个创造者呢？

How can you go out and be someone who builds?

你知道吗？

And you know what?

人其实天生就想创造东西。

People naturally, they want to be builders.

是的。

Yeah.

只是他们往往没得到工具、时间，或者指导。

They just often aren't given the tools, the time, or the mentorship.

还有信心。

The confidence

你提到的那些。

that you mentioned.

去做吧。

Do that.

而且，你知道的，再说一次，我不是要过分批评传统学校，但孩子们每天去学校，心里想的是，好吧。

And, you know, again, not to bag on traditional school too much, but, you know, kids go to school every day and they say, okay.

我就坐在这把椅子上，完全得听从老师安排的课程，而不是说，嘿。

I'm gonna sit in this chair, and I'm completely beholden to what the teacher is going to be giving out for curriculum instead of saying, hey.

我知道我得学这些内容，我可以继续前进，而且只要我学得会，就能以最快的速度掌握。

I I know I've gotta learn this material and I can go forward and I can go as quickly as as I'm capable of doing well.

但他们就坐在那儿，像这样。

And they're sitting here just like, this.

或者这么说吧，比如他们在课上做某个项目。

Or let's say, you know, they're working on this, you know, project in a class.

一旦课程结束，大家就觉得项目也结束了。

As soon as that class is over, it's like project's done.

去年春天，也就是2025年5月左右，我们不少学生正在向一家风投公司路演，为他们的创业项目争取融资。

And last spring and the 2025, it was about May, a bunch of our students were doing a pitch for a VC firm, you know, for funding for their businesses.

其中一位投资人问了一个问题：那暑假学校放假后，你们打算怎么办？

One of the questions that one of the VCs asked was, so what's gonna happen this summer when school gets out?

孩子们一脸困惑地问：‘你这话是什么意思？’

And the kids look at them like, what do you mean what's gonna happen?

我可不会停下来。

I I keep going.

我还有事要做。

I got work to do.

去年春天，我们的高中生主动来找我们，问能不能让学校暑假也开着。

And in fact, our high school students came to us last spring and said, can we please keep our high school open for the summer?

他们根本没有那种‘我拿了A，任务就结束了’的想法。

Because they didn't have this attitude of, well, my business is done because I got the A in the class and so it's over.

他们觉得：我还有事要做，为什么不在朋友和同学身边，继续得到导师们的指导和支持呢？

They're like, I got work to do, and why would I not wanna be surrounded by my friends and classmates and getting the mentorship and and support that our guides are able to provide while they're going forward with this?

这就营造出一种特别棒的氛围，充满干劲，也让人兴奋。

And it just creates this, like, amazing energy and environment where, it's an ambitious and it's exciting.

同时也很有支持性和协作性，因为每个孩子都在做不同的事。

And it's also supportive and collaborative because every kid is working on something different.

可不是只有一个人能当校队网球队长，你得争才行。

It's not like there's only one spot at the varsity tennis captain, you know, and you gotta you you get that.

或者比赛里只能有一个冠军机器人团队。

Or, you know, you can only have the one winning robotics team at the competition.

孩子们来自各种背景，但大家都聚在一起，互相支持。

We've got kids doing things from such varied backgrounds, and they're all there kinda saying, like, let's support each other.

互相帮忙。

Let's help.

我们发现，当孩子处在这样的环境里，被鼓励去追求更有意义的目标，又有支持相伴时，他们会特别有干劲，这个地方也特别让人愿意待。

And we really find that that when you put kids in that environment and call them to something greater with that support, they they get just psyched, and it's a fun place to hang out.

是的。

Yeah.

这听起来太棒了。

That that sounds incredible.

听你讲这个故事，我一直在想，关键根本不是天赋。

Hearing that story, the thing I keep coming back to is that it wasn't talent.

是她周围的环境造就了她，这让我想到了一件很简单的事。

It was the system around her, and it made me think about something very simple.

大多数人用Claude就像用搜索引擎。

Most people use Claude like a search engine.

他们打一个问题进去。

They type in a question.

得到一个答案，但多半不满意，然后就关掉了标签页。

They get an answer, most times they're not really satisfied with it, and they close the tab.

我以前也是这样，持续了好几个月。后来我看到有人说AI改变了他们的生活，我就想，那我试试看。结果花了一个下午好好设置了一下，上传了几份关于我思考方式和工作习惯的文件，一切都变了。

I did the same thing for months, and I was looking at people who were saying AI is changing their life, and I'm like Then I spent one afternoon setting it up properly, uploaded a few files about how I think and how I work, and it completely changed.

我把整个过程一步步写了下来。

I wrote the whole process up, step by step.

想了解的话，可以订阅我的通讯《未来保障》。

You get it when you subscribe to my newsletter Future Proof.

免费的，链接在简介里。

It's free, the link is in the description.

咱们来聊聊屏幕使用时间吧，很多家长都挺关心这个问题的。

Let's talk about screen time, something that a lot of parents are concerned with.

瑞典还做过一个相关的实验。

And also Sweden did this experiment.

不知道你有没有听说过这事。

I don't know if you know about this.

他们干脆把课本全取消了。

They abandoned books.

改用iPad，结果孩子的识字能力反而下降了。

They introduced iPads, and then literacy went down.

最后只好禁止使用iPad，重新把课本拿回来。

So they had to ban iPads and reintroduce the books.

你们学校还用课本吗？还是四岁孩子也全用iPad？

Do you have books in your school, or is it just iPad even for four year olds?

每天屏幕时间有两小时吗？

Is it, like, two hours on the screen?

没有。

No.

所以我们从四岁就开始在学前班引入电子设备了。

So we do start as early as four years old in a pre K program.

孩子们确实会用屏幕做些事情，但时间比那两小时短得多。

They are doing some work on screens, but it's a shorter period of time than that two hours.

其实有个有趣的数据，目前美国孩子每天平均使用屏幕的时间是两个半小时。

And actually, fun fact, the, you know, average amount of time kids are spending on screens in The United States right now is two and a half hours a day.

对。

Mhmm.

所以我们的孩子每天用屏幕的时间比美国的孩子还要少。

So our kids actually spend less time on a screen than kids there.

这挺不错的。

Oh, it's cool.

是的。

Yeah.

但还有另一个关键点。

But here's the other big key component.

并不是所有的屏幕时间都是一样的。

There is not equality between all screen time.

我和我孩子一直坚持不接触屏幕，我也推荐这样做。

I, myself, with my kids, we were a screen free family, and I recommend that.

比如，把iPad放在孩子面前，不管是吃饭时还是在学校里，说‘咱们来上网做吧’。

Like, you know, putting an iPad in front of your kid, you know, at the dinner table or even in school to say, hey, let's do this online.

其实，那本来就是一张纸质练习卷而已。

You know, that could have been just a worksheet.

对吧？

Right?

可我们偏偏要改成在线做。

But we'll do it doing it online.

这纯粹就是为用科技而用科技。

It's just it's like technology for technology's sake.

对我们来说，关键区别在于，这不仅仅是坐在屏幕前做点什么。

And the key difference here for us is it's not just doing something on a screen.

而是要让孩子在学习中保持高度参与，这种状态被称为‘最近发展区’——任务难度适中，不会难到让孩子放弃，也不会简单到让他们心不在焉。

It's having that engaged level of interaction with your academics that's keeping you in what's called the zone of proximal development where the answer you know, the the the work isn't so hard that you've kinda turned off and so easy that you're not really engaged.

这样能让孩子主动投入到学习中，所以我们看到的学习效果，远比单纯把内容丢到屏幕上要好得多。

So it creates a very proactive kind of connection with what students are doing, which is why we're seeing, you know, better learning results than just putting something on screen.

话虽如此，当然，我们也有纸质书。

That said, yes, of course, we have books.

我觉得对孩子来说，特别重要的一点是，我们不仅要教他们读书，更要让他们真正爱上阅读。

One of the things that I think is such an important thing for kids to learn is we gotta teach them not just to read, but to fall in love with reading.

没错。

Yeah.

而最好的方式，首先是教他们掌握阅读这项技能，而我们的环境正好能很好地做到这一点。

And what better way to do that than, first of all, teaching them the skill of reading, which we're able to do very well with this environment.

我还想强调，和大人面对面大声朗读，这种一对一的互动至关重要。

And I will say the importance of one to one out loud reading with a human is so critical.

所以我们的阅读专家能够抽出时间，为每个孩子提供一对一的单独阅读指导，这已成为他们学习的一部分。

And so that's what our reading specialists are able to have time to do that one to one pull out reading time with every kid as part of their learning.

但同时，我们也要教会他们说：好吧。

But then it's also teaching them to say, okay.

让我们一起想想，怎么才能激发他们对阅读的热爱。

Let's figure out how we can encourage you to love to read.

举个例子，我们开发了一个叫《Teach Tales》的应用程序。

And an example of that, we have an app that we have created called Teach Tales.

这个应用本质上是一个AI工具，让孩子创作符合自己兴趣的故事，难度正好匹配他们的水平，让他们始终处在最近发展区里。

And what it does is it's basically an AI app that allows kids to create stories that match their interests, and it's at the difficulty level that's exactly right for them that keeps them in that zone of proximal development.

比如，那个平时宁愿骑滑板车到处玩也不愿坐下来读书的小男孩，现在却成了故事里的主角，和他最好的朋友一起展开一场拯救世界的冒险，情节还正好契合他最爱的那部电影。

So, basically, you can take that little boy who maybe would rather be just, like, going around on his scooter than sitting down and reading a book, but suddenly, he's the main character with his best friends in a save the world kind of adventure that matches his favorite, you know, movie that he's got.

突然间，他变得特别想读书了。

And all of a sudden, he's excited about reading.

这些事，我们非做不可。

And these are things we have to do.

是的，我们的孩子有机会接触莎士比亚的作品。

So, yes, our kids get to be exposed to Shakespeare.

是的，我们的孩子也在读那些经典名著，确实如此。

And, yes, our kids are reading the great books, you know, and they're doing that stuff.

这只是我认为教育中重要的一部分而已。

It's it's one part of, you know, what I think is important to for education.

艾迪·赫希列出了五千个事实、概念，还有他们称之为核心知识的内容，这些都被认为是成为一个有教养的人所必需的。我们把这些内容融入课程，确保孩子们能学到这些。

Edie Hirsch has 5,000 facts, concepts, and and what what they call core pieces of knowledge that are considered important to be an educated person, And we're able to put that information into our curriculum in order to make sure that, you know, the kids are getting that education.

所以，人们常常忘记的一点是，当你每天只需要花两个小时专注学业时，剩下的整个校园时间就能用来做其他事，比如完成‘好书打卡’。

And so, you know, the wonderful thing that I think people often forget is that when you only have to spend two hours working on that academics, it opens up the whole rest of the school day to be able to do things like, okay, you're gonna do a great book check.

我们叫它‘打卡’，因为是用打卡表来记录的。

We call it a check because it's on a check chart.

你需要读完一定数量的书，然后写读书心得，给孩子这样的机会很重要。

You've got to read a certain number of books, and then you're writing reflections on them, you know, and and having kids have that opportunity.

他们是用iPad写，还是手写？

Are they writing an iPad or a handwriting?

不是。

No.

那我们为什么还要教孩子手写呢？

So we Why help us do handwriting?

我们就是这样做的。

That's what we do.

我们教的是连笔字。

We teach cursive.

明白了。

Okay.

我真希望我的孩子能学会这个，因为我花了很多天、很多周，甚至可能好几个月在学习它。

This what I really want my kids to learn because I spend days and weeks learning well, months probably.

我知道这听起来有点疯狂。

I know what's crazy.

我只用连笔字写字。

I only write in cursive.

我觉得手写体其实还是一种挺重要的技艺。

Like, I still think cursive is, like, a pretty important art.

我觉得这是一项很棒的技能。

I think it's a great skill.

没错，这确实是个很棒的技能，因为它能锻炼手眼协调，促进大脑发育。

I oh, it's a great well, and it's a great skill because of what it does with just your hand eye coordination, how it helps develop the brain.

音乐也是同样的道理。

Same thing with music.

艺术也是同样的道理。

Same thing with art.

我们其实想让孩子接触各种各样的活动。

There's so many different different types of things that we wanna give kids to do.

所以，没错，他们现在还是用铅笔和纸在练习。

And so, yes, they're doing that on pencil and paper.

还有另一件事，我们的孩子也能参与。

Here's another thing that our kids get to to do.

他们在学缝纫。

They're learning to sew.

对吧？

Right?

他们还上木工课，像这类活动，其实早就被挤出常规课表了，因为时间不够。

They're doing a woodworking class, like stuff that, you know, has actually been torn out of the traditional school day because there's not enough time.

大家都觉得，只要多花时间在学业上，成绩自然就会提高，但事实并非如此。

Everyone thinks we just need more time on academics in order to see success rates go up, and that's not really true.

我们发现，花更少的时间，孩子们反而学得更有效，还能腾出空间去体验各种生活技能。

We're showing that in less time, kids can learn more effectively and then open up all of those other kind of life skills experiences.

就像当年我们家五六岁的孩子，骑着自行车成群结队地横跨金门大桥，大家一起完成骑行；或者爬四十英尺高的岩壁，还有初中生一起完成三项全能比赛——这样的事例太多了。

But if it's anything like when our kids, you know, our five and six year olds were riding back and forth on the Golden Gate Bridge in their Alpha biker gang where they finish finish that ride as a team or, you know, they've climbed 40 foot rock walls or our middle schoolers have been able to complete a triathlon together.

我们看到了太多形形色色的活动。

There are so many different activities that we're seeing.

孩子们完全有能力胜任这些挑战。

Kids can absolutely rise to the occasion.

而帮助我们做到这一点的部分原因，是我们确保过程有趣，哪怕任务很难，孩子们也能玩得开心。

And part of what what helps us do that is we're making sure that it's fun, like that the kids are having fun even when it's hard.

对吧？

Right?

我们说孩子喜欢学校，并不是随口一提，而是至关重要的。

It doesn't mean when we talk about kids loving school, which we think is critical.

孩子真的得喜欢学校。

Kids need to love school.

事实上，这是我们向家长做出的第一个承诺：你的孩子会爱上学校。

In fact, it's our first commitment that we make to our families, which is that your kid will love school.

这之所以重要，不是因为每天都能像游乐园一样。

The reason that's so important isn't because every day is Disneyland.

而是因为当孩子心里燃起一股劲儿，觉得‘我喜欢上学’的时候。

It's because when kids feel this fire in their belly and are like, I like being at school.

我真的很喜欢上学。

I love being at school.

这让我们能够鼓励他们挑战困难的任务，去尝试那些他们原本觉得自己做不到的事。

It allows us to challenge them to do hard things, to take on tasks that maybe they wouldn't know how to do.

而且他们有支持，这正是激发潜力的关键，我觉得这才是学校该有的样子。

And they've got that support, And it it it's what helps unlock potential, which is what I think school needs to be.

所以你是把一整天的安排大大压缩了，我想到的是普通学校的一天。

And so you basically compress I'm thinking about a typical school day.

整整六个小时都是学术课程。

It's six hours of academics.

对吧？

Right?

没错。

And it yeah.

差不多就是这样。

Basically.

把它压缩到两到三个小时，减少了三分之二。

Compress it to two so three x less.

对。

Mhmm.

而且你们还是覆盖了同样的内容，对吧。

And you still cover the same material Mhmm.

而且深度也一样，因为每个人都是按照自己的节奏来学习的。

And same depth just because everybody moves individually within the

眼睛。

eyes.

我们讲得更深入。

Argue we cover it in greater depth.

是的。

Mhmm.

因为，举个例子，如果你想想五年级数学该掌握哪些知识，传统体系里的孩子，他们只是在跟着进度走数学概念。

Because, again, when you think about what, let's say, fifth grade academic knowledge, you know, is for math as an example, kids in a traditional system, they're moving through the math concepts.

不管会不会，他们都会往前赶。

And whether they know it or not, they kinda move forward.

这就是为什么这个国家有三分之一的孩子在数学或阅读上能达到年级水平。

Again, it's why a third of kids in this country are actually proficient in their grade level in math or reading.

这意味着另外三分之二的孩子还没达到熟练程度。

That means two thirds are not at mastery.

而在我们的体系里，孩子必须完全掌握当前内容，才会升入下一个年级。

Whereas in our system, kids don't move up in their academic grade level until they've mastered.

他们得达到百分之九十以上才算掌握。

They've gotta be above 90% in order to master.

所以学习的深度自然就更深了。

And so it it goes to a a larger depth.

这也是为什么我们常被问到这个问题，我们的第二个承诺是：孩子在两小时内能学到两倍的内容。

This is the other reason we get sometimes this question so our second commitment is that kids will learn twice as much in only two hours.

通常是两倍。

So often Twice as much.

两倍。

Twice as much.

我们用一种叫NWEA MAP的测评来衡量这一点。

And we measure that with something called the NWEA MAP assessment.

这是一种标准化测评，全美大约一千万名学生都会参加，包括在家上学、公立学校和私立学校的学生。

It's a it's a standardized assessment that's taken by about 10,000,000 kids all over the country, homeschool, public school, private school.

他们真的能记住学过的内容吗？

And they actually remember what they learned?

是的。

Yeah.

当你通过确保孩子掌握前面的内容来为他们铺路，后续更复杂的内容就更容易理解了。

And then, again, what happens is is when you set kids up for success by giving them mastery of earlier content, it, again, it makes more sophisticated content because you can learn to grasp.

对。

Yeah.

而且还能学得更深。

And go deeper on that.

所以在我们的高中，学生们修的高级课程，和别的学校学生修的是同一类。

And so at our high school, our kids are taking the same advanced placement courses that, you know, some kids are taking.

他们要学四年英语、外语、科学、数学，还有各种历史课程。

They're taking four years of English and foreign language and science and math and all of those types of history.

他们确实是在学这些内容，但花的时间更少。

They're doing that, but they're doing it in less time.

在高中阶段，一门课大概三小时。

At the high school level, it's it's three hours.

有时候会稍微长一点。

It's a little bit longer on there.

不过，我们确实把时间压缩了，学得更高效、更扎实。

But, yeah, we have basically been able to compress that time and make it more efficient and more effective.

我觉得，他们对知识的理解比传统课堂里的学生更深。

So I think they are learning at a deeper level than kids in a traditional classroom.

这真的很有趣。

That's very interesting.

确实如此。

Yeah.

明白了。

Okay.

所以如果有人在听，而且你家孩子的学费挺高的。

So if somebody's listening to this and you have a pretty high check.

对吧？

Right?

大概是七万七千美元吗？

Is it, like, 7 70 k?

具体是多少呢？

How much is it?

我们的Alpha学校是那种备受关注的学校，属于顶级私立学校，重新定义了家长对孩子私立教育的期待。

So our Alpha Schools, Alpha School is kind of the school that's gotten a lot of the attention, and that is, like, super high end private school, kinda redefining what parents expect out of their kids' private school experience.

孩子们通过航海学习团队合作和适应能力，之后还能从佛罗里达航行到巴哈马，这类活动是逐步开展的。

So, you know, when kids are learning teamwork and adaptability through sailing and then they get to sail from Florida to The Bahamas, you know, over time, they're doing that.

这类学校的费用大概在四万到七万五千美元之间。

And that's basically between 40 and $75,000.

是的。

Mhmm.

这些学校正在全国各地陆续开设，看到这么多家庭对孩子的教育不只是关注我们之前聊过的学术部分，更看重那些生活技能，真的让人很受鼓舞。

Those schools are opening all over the country, and it's been really cool to see the amount of demand we have from families who are excited about not just the the part we've spent time talking about the academics, but really all the life skills.

那如果有人负担不起七万美元，但每天能抽出两个小时，像我这样的家长能复制一部分这样的体验吗？

So somebody who can't afford 70 k, if it's just, well, two hours a day, can a parent like me replicate part of this experience?

因为我是个很用心的家长。

Because I'm a dedicated parent.

我每天至少花两到三个小时陪孩子做各种事情。

I spend, like, two to three hours at least per day with my kids just doing stuff with them.

如果我也想这么做，具体该从哪些步骤开始？

If I want to do something like that, what are the steps that I need to take?

而且我觉得，你教的这些能力，不只是对孩子有用。

And I also feel like it's really because all the skills that you're teaching, it's not just for kids.

对成年人来说也同样重要，因为大家都明白世界在变，必须不断学习和适应。

It's for adults who understand that the world is changing, and they need to be constantly learning, adapting.

世界每周都在变。

Basically, world changes every week.

所以我们正准备迎接这个变化。

So that's that's what we're up for.

我喜欢这个问题，因为看到很多家庭在家模仿Alpha的模式，陪着孩子做各种事情，真的特别有意思。

I love this question because it's been so fun to watch people who are replicating a lot of the Alpha magic in their own homes with what their kids are doing.

比如，有些家庭已经在用我们的Alpha Anywhere在家教育项目。

And so that's everything from, you know, we've got families that are using our Alpha Anywhere homeschool program.

这个项目一年要花一万美元，但孩子能获得和学校一样的学术平台。

That's $10,000 a year to get the same academic platform

是的。

Mhmm.

而孩子们下午的时间，则可以用来发展家庭觉得有意义的生活技能。

You know, that our kids in school are getting.

而孩子们下午的时间，则可以用来发展家庭觉得有意义的生活技能。

And then their afternoons get to be, you know, the life skills development that the family decides that is interesting.

其实，教孩子生活技能的方式有很多。

And, you know, there are so many ways that you can teach great life skills.

比如运动，一直以来都是培养毅力、韧性、团队合作、领导力、接受反馈，以及掌握技能的绝佳途径。

You know, sports obviously has always been a really popular way of teaching grit and resilience and teamwork and leadership and receiving feedback, you know, and learning the mastery as well.

我们觉得运动里有些理念，平时在学术教育里不容易看出来，但我们其实用的是同样的方法。

You know, one of the things we think about with sports that it's harder to understand with academics, but we're taking the same approach.

你想想，一个篮球运动员，要是连运球都不会，怎么可能去练扣篮呢？

You know, if you're a basketball player, you're not working on your dunking if you don't know how to dribble the ball down the court.

对吧？

Right?

得从基础开始，先把基础打牢，再往上走。

It's start with the basics, master the basics, and then move up.

打完一场比赛之后，你还会回看比赛录像。

You know, you analyze game film when you're finished, you know, with a game.

目的是找出哪些地方还能做得更好。

You're watching to see where you could do better.

我们在学术方面也在做很多类似的事情。

We're doing a lot of that same stuff on the academic side.

但家长在家里其实也可以做一些事情。

But there are things that families can do at home.

我一直觉得创业是个特别好的方式，之前我们还提到过卖柠檬水的例子。

I always think entrepreneurship is such a great tool, and we talked about that with the lemonade stand.

这些都很适合让孩子学习理财知识。

So those are great ways to learn financial literacy.

这些事情父母在家完全可以带孩子一起做。

And those are things that parents can be doing at home.

但这里有个难题。

Now here's the challenge.

很多时候，最大的问题就是一天只有24小时。

A lot of times, the big big issue with this is there's only so many hours in the day.

孩子整天上学，回家本该稍微放松一下，结果却往往要马上写作业，而且作业开始的时间也越来越早。

So when kids are going to school all day long, they come home, they get hopefully a little bit of a break, they often are ending up doing homework, which is starting earlier and earlier.

他们还有作业要做。

They've got homework.

还得吃晚饭。

You gotta eat dinner.

要么练钢琴，要么去踢足球，反正事儿不少。

You're doing piano practice or you're going to play soccer, whatever it is.

能额外补充的精力毕竟有限。

There's only so much supplementing that can be done.

这正是越来越多的家庭开始意识到：该向学区施压了，该问问学校了——你们到底在做什么来提升教学质量？

And that's one of the reasons I think families are starting to realize, like, it's time for us to to demand change in our school districts and to ask our schools, what are you doing to try and improve academics?

那学术方面呢？

What about academics?

如果有人想把你们这套方法用在家里，家长能带孩子做些什么？

If somebody wants to deploy part of your system at home, what can they do with their kids?

是看某些视频吗？还是别的什么？

Is it like watching particular videos or I don't know.

对。

Yeah.

用氛围感写个应用。

Vibe coding an app.

让我给你

Let me give

举个学术方面的例子。

you an example on the academic side.

有个叫Math Academy的App，我们特别喜欢。

There is an app called Math Academy that we absolutely love.

它不是我们自家的App。

It's not one of our apps.

它是外面一个团队开发的，他们在Math Academy这个项目上做得非常出色。

It's built by, you know, an an outside team that they've just done a great job with Math Academy.

这确实是个很棒的App。

It's a great app.

所以这就是一个例子，如果你希望孩子能花点时间做点应用方面的事，就可以往这个方向走。

And so that's an example of something that, you know, if you're wanting your kid to be able to spend some time doing, you know, some app work going there.

我觉得现在特别有意思的是，这么多新出的AI工具，真的让人玩得很开心。

I think the other thing that's, you know, so much fun now is, you know, working on so many of these AI tools that are coming out.

事实上，上个月我们有不少学生去了纽约，给家长们办了一场Open Claw课程，教他们该怎么操作。

In fact, a bunch of our our students went to New York last month, and they did an Open Claw class for parents, you know, to teach them what to do.

当我们考虑作为员工最重要的技能时，你必须始终明白：怎么把我正在做的事发挥出最大价值？

And, you know, when we're thinking about a super important skill as an employee in order to have a job, you're gonna have to always understand, like, how do I take whatever I'm doing and add the most value from it?

怎么让自己变成AI优先的人？

How do I become AI first?

是啊，没错。

Oh, yeah.

怎么把我的一部分技能自动化，然后往上提升，

How do I automate part of my skills and rise up to

让自己获得超能力。

the most give me superpowers.

是的

Yeah.

对吧？

Right?

真正让人在职场上站稳脚跟、有竞争力的，是能不断明白——

That's what's gonna make people job resilient, you know, when and and employable is if they are constantly knowing, alright.

怎么把手上的东西变成自己的优势，做出更大的成果。

Here's how I can take something and use it to my advantage to build something big.

同时在和AI互动时，也要靠自己的判断。

And also use personal judgment when interacting with AI.

没错。

Absolutely.

你知道的。

You know?

还有另一点。

And and here's the other thing.

我觉得大家对人工智能都挺害怕的。

I think there's a lot of fear around AI.

在学校里也是，这其实很合理，因为学校里的聊天机器人都是些廉价的工具。

And in schools, there is and it's rightly so because chatbots in schools are cheap bots.

我们学校不用聊天机器人，因为孩子们会拿它们来

And, you know, we don't use chatbots in our schools because kids do use them for

作弊。

switching ops.

你们有设置拦截工具吗？

Do you have, like, a blocker?

是啊。

So yeah.

我们的孩子平时都在用电脑学习。

So our our kids are working on computers.

他们在使用Time Back平台，这个系统会监控他们的操作，防止他们随便乱来。

So they've got they've got, basically, in the Time Back platform, it's it's monitoring so that they can't say, okay.

我正从这里移到那里。

I'm moving from here to here.

或者如果他们真的能绕过去，我们也能看出来。

Or if if if they're able to somehow, we can see it.

我们通过屏幕录制来观察孩子们是如何操作的。

We're screen recording to be able to see how kids are moving through this.

另外，我们还能根据情况给予指导，比如发现你可能只是快速扫了一眼阅读材料。

Also what allows us to give coaching to kids when it's like, oh, okay, I noticed that you you maybe skimmed the reading.

你花在全文阅读上的时间不够，没法真正理解内容。

You didn't spend enough time reading the whole the whole thing in order to do that.

而指导孩子时，通常放慢速度反而能让你比急着赶完做得更快。

And then coaching, you know, oftentimes slowing down will actually help you go faster than trying to rush through something.

掌握这类技能是非常重要的。

And, you know, getting that kind of skills is important to do.

所以，需要做的事情其实挺多的。

So it's a you know, there's a lot to do.

但在教育领域，我们必须确保以正确的方式应用人工智能。

But, yeah, in education, we've got to make sure that we're implementing AI in a in a good way.

我最担心的是，每个孩子都发一台装着聊天机器人的电脑，然后就说：‘哇，我们是AI优先的。’

And what I would hate to see is just, you know, every kid gets a computer with chatty bitty on it and say, wow.

我们是AI优先的。

We're AI first.

是的。

Yeah.

这正是我担心的

That that's my concern with

屏幕时间。

screen time.

我其实希望他们多看一些视频。

Like, I really want them to watch some videos.

有些TED演讲我特别喜欢，画面感很强，正好可以和孩子一起看。

There are some TED Talks I absolutely love, which are also very visual so I can show them with my kids.

但我担心的是，如果我接个电话离开房间，他们就会想办法切换到短视频。

But my concern is that if there's a phone call and I leave the room, they're gonna figure out how to switch to shorts.

是啊。

Oh, yeah.

如果你有孩子，就像马克·罗伯那样，他做的那些东西——

If you have kids like Mark Rober who does all

对。

the Yeah.

完全没错。

Bull sign Yeah.

我刚给他们看了闪光炸弹的视频。

I just showed them the glitter bomb.

他们特别着迷。

They were fascinated.

是的。

Yeah.

不行。

No.

其实有不少巧妙的方法可以做到。

There's some interesting ways to do it.

你知道吗，现在我们能通过YouTube观看心脏手术，而不是像以前在课堂上只解剖猪，这变化太大了。

And you know, that's another thing that I think we have the ability now to like be able to watch a heart surgery, you know, on YouTube versus, you know, just dissecting a pig, you know, in class.

世界上有太多精彩的东西值得我们好好利用，关键是要用对方式，比如：咱们就从这个开始学吧。

There are so many cool ways that we need to take advantage of what the world has to offer in the right way where where we can say, okay, let's learn this.

从这些事物里获得启发。

Let's get inspired by something here.

马克·罗伯就是个很好的例子，他特别会吸引孩子，让他们真正爱上科学和这类活动。

Mark Rober is a great example of a really good influencer who makes kids fall in love with science and activities like that.

所以你得恰到好处地穿插这些内容。

And so you gotta pepper in that right amount.

我觉得，家里的父母也可以主动一点，比如：我今天要让孩子用一些智能学习应用做点功课。

And I think, you know, parents at home who are kind of being able to say, alright, I'm gonna intentionally have my kid do some work using adaptive apps.

我还会为他们设计一些在家培养生活技能的方式。

I'm going to also have, you know, a way for them to develop life skills at home.

我们是在特定体系下长大的，觉得这套体系最适合我们的孩子。

We grew up in a particular system, and we think it's the best system for our kids.

但我也意识到，这个世界真的已经变了。

But then what I also do realize that the world has really changed.

你觉得高等教育还重要吗？

Do you think higher education matters?

你觉得十年内大学还会那么重要吗？

Do you think universities are gonna matter in five to ten years?

我们告诉学生的是：你们要准备好去做任何想做的事。

Here's what we're telling our students is that we want you to be prepared to go do whatever it is that you wanna do.

如果你们想进常春藤名校，那就该有能让你被录取的履历。

And if that means you wanna go to an Ivy League school, then you should be able to have, you know, the resume that gets you into that.

如果你们想直接创业或进入职场，也得做好充分准备。

And if you wanna be ready to go out and hop into business or go straight in the working world, you should be prepared to to do that as well.

我觉得这是个很个人的决定。

So I think that's a very personal choice.

如果你问我对高等教育的整体看法，我觉得大学体系现在跟K12教育差不多，都在紧紧跟着同样的模式——要是能把AI工具像Alpha那样用起来，让基础课程都由AI来教，腾出教授的时间，专门跟那些已经达到一定水平的学生深入讨论，那该多好。

Now if you ask me in general general about higher education, I think the university system is, you know, following very closely behind the the k through twelve one, which is that, you know, if you took AI tools just like what Alpha is doing and said, hey, let's do all our basic courses, you know, this way and then free up the professor's time to to really spend time in more sophisticated discussion with kids who are, you know, at that level.

让教授们去做研究吧。

Let's go be doing research.

对。

Mhmm.

大家一起创业，做点真正有意思的事，都行。

Let's go build up, you know, build a build a start up together, do whatever that is.

我觉得那样会特别有吸引力。

I think that would make it really exciting.

我相信大学的价值，我有个女儿已经在上大学，另一个明年也要去了。

Now I believe university, and I've got one daughter who's in college and another who's heading there next year.

这两个姑娘都特别期待上大学，因为她们想跟其他有抱负的年轻人在一起。

Both those girls were so excited to go to college because they're excited to be around other ambitious young people.

对吧？

Right?

他们期待建立自己的人脉圈。

They're excited to build their network.

我觉得大学在构建人脉方面做得特别出色。

And I think university does an amazing job at building out, you know, networks.

很多人就是在那儿遇到自己的另一半的。

It's where you often can meet your your spouse.

是的。

Mhmm.

那里还能结识一生的挚友。

There's your best friends for life.

他们上大学就是为了这个体验。

That's what they want to go to college for.

他们想要拥有这样的经历。

They want to have that experience.

但我认为，他们上课的时间其实挺低效的。

But I think, again, their time spent in classes is, you know, pretty inefficient.

对。

Yeah.

他们怎么从每天两小时过渡到八小时呢？

How do they adjust from two hours to eight hours?

是的。

Yeah.

挺有意思的。

It's funny.

我们其实专门研究过这个问题，因为很多人担心：孩子如果重新回到传统学校环境，会怎么样？

We actually looked at this because that's a big concern that people have is, okay, what happens when your kids go back into a traditional environment?

我们发现的是这样：

And here's what we've found.

他们表现得非常好。

They do great.

他们能很快明白，原来学习可以这样搞？

They are able to very quickly understand, okay, here's how I can I can learn?

而且他们主动承担责任，积极掌控自己的学习。

And I they have a proactive attitude of taking on ownership of their learning.

他们自己也会说，我女儿就是其中一个，开学第一周就给我打电话，说：妈，真的没想到。

But they will say, and my daughter was one of them, she called me up after the first week of school and she's like, wow, mom.

这些课简直太低效了。

I mean, these lectures are so inefficient.

一堂45分钟的课，真正有价值的内容可能就那么5分钟。

Like, in a forty five minute class, you know, there's probably five minutes of real information that was worthwhile.

那他们的成绩怎么样？

But do they do well in grades?

当然没问题。

Absolutely.

更重要的是，我觉得我们Alpha的毕业生往往有一种追求精通的劲头，哪怕整个体系并不鼓励这样。

More importantly than that, though, I think what it feels like our Alpha grads tend to do is they have a desire towards just mastery even when the system isn't doing it.

我们有个学生上了大学后，写了一篇课程论文。

We had a student who went off to university and he wrote a paper for one of his classes.

论文发回来时，他得了95分，但上面连一个批注都没有。

And he got the paper back and he had a 95%, but there were no notes.

于是他去找教授，说：‘我看到得了95分，但没看到任何反馈，不知道哪里还能改进。’

So he went and met with his professor and he said, hey, I see that I got a 95%, but I don't see any notes on how I could improve.

教授只说：‘这已经是不错的分数了。',

And she just said, well, you know, that's a good grade.

这是个A啊。

That's an a.

你该知足了。

You should be happy with that.

他说：‘我确实满意，但我只是想知道，怎样才能做到完美。’

He's like, I am happy with it, but I just want to know what would make it better.

什么样的表现才能拿满分？

Like what would get a 100?

她说，你知道的，写作这事儿，根本不可能拿到一百分。

And she said, well, you know, writing, you're never gonna get to a 100.

总还有可以改进的地方。

There's always improvement.

他说，那太好了。

He goes, great.

你告诉我，我哪里还能做得更好？

Share with me what what I could improve upon.

她看着他，直接把95划掉，改成了99，就让他走了。

And, you know, she looked at him and she just crossed out the 95 and put a 99 and sent him on his way.

所以他其实并没得到他想要的反馈。

So he didn't get he actually didn't get the feedback he was looking for.

这只是一个例子，说明连老师都习惯了只看分数。

And it's just an example that even teachers are programmed to be like, it's just about the grade.

只把分数给你就行了。

Just here's the grade.

你去吧。

Go on your way.

我觉得Alpha学生都明白，哦，我可以去学这个，因为挺有意思的，而且我有能力进步。

And, you know, I think Alpha students realize like, oh, I can go learn this because, you know, it's interesting and I have a ability to get better.

有意思。

Interesting.

明白了。

Okay.

你说了这么多，我就在想，成年人自己打造的Alpha式学习模式会是什么样子？

So you're saying all of this, and I'm like, what would be the version of self imposed alpha school for adults?

哦。

Oh,

首先，我觉得，要是我有更多时间，我有时候会想，不如这样吧。

well, first of all, I think, you know, for me, if I had a little bit more time, I sometimes think, you know what?

我想回去补一补那些漏掉的知识，比如我的数学和历史到底掌握到什么程度了。

I'd love to go back and do some, you know, hole filling, you know, and remember where am I at in, you know, my math and history, those types of things.

所以我觉得，父母可以和孩子一起用这些应用软件。

So, I mean, I think that one of the things that that parents can do is start doing some of these apps with their kids.

不是陪着孩子用，而是自己也用，这样才懂它们是怎么运作的、能做什么。

Not with them, but but do them too so that they can understand how they work and what they do.

找一个你感兴趣的话题，深入钻研下去。

Find a thing that you're interested in learning more about and go deep.

我们中学的学生，经常这么做。

Our middle school students, we do this all the time.

其实我们甚至更早就开始做了，会让孩子围绕一个感兴趣的主题，连续探索两周。

Actually, we start earlier than that, which is we'll have kids go down a two week long rabbit hole around a subject that they find interesting.

这对成年人来说也是一样。

And so that's something as an adult.

找一个你想了解的领域，然后告诉自己：我要深入学一学，做个‘知识整理’——就是把所有学到的东西都列出来。

Go find a topic that you're interested in learning about and say, I'm gonna go and I'm gonna build what we call a brain lift, which is basically a list of everything I learned.

这个领域里有哪些专家？

Who are the experts in this area?

你知道吗，我现在已经开始想，我是不是该去了解一下荷尔蒙、更年期这些马上要在我身上发生的事了。

You know, I'm at the point where I'm starting to think, oh, I should start learning about hormones and, you know, menopause and all those kinds of things that are that are gonna be happening in my next stage.

所以去查查谁是这方面的专家，谁在做这些研究。

So go and and find out who's the expert, who's built who's doing this.

我们很多学生就是这样，每天花半小时专门研究自己感兴趣的课题。

And then this is what a lot of our students do is they they spend, you know, a half an hour each day doing research on their topic of interest.

他们整理出一份知识清单，然后还能用它训练一个大模型，随时查询和更新。

They build a brain lift, and then they can actually build an LLM out of that, and they can search constantly.

你明白吧？

You know?

对，没错。

Okay.

我到底对这个话题了解多少？都是从我学过的东西里总结出来的。

Here's what do I know about this topic, you know, from what I've studied?

而且他们还在不断补充。

And they're continuing to add.

所以我觉得这是个很好的例子，鼓励大家不断深入、持续学习，最终成为某个领域的专家。

And so I think it's a great example of really encouraging this idea of continuing to go deeper and learn and becoming an expert in something.

当你跟孩子聊职业时，你是怎么想的？

And when you talk about professions to your kids, do you what is your thinking around this?

你实际上是在取代老师，把他们转变成教练或指导团队的角色。

You're you're basically replacing teachers, and you you're moving them to more like a coach cohort.

从这次对话中，我感受到你在培养很多创业者，这太棒了。

The thing that I'm getting from this conversation is that you're raising a lot of entrepreneurs, which is amazing.

我觉得，如果一个人没有创业精神，未来十年到二十年，当大量体力劳动被自动化取代时，会很难立足。

And I feel like if you don't have entrepreneurial qualities, it's gonna be really hard to survive in ten to twenty years when a lot of manual work is automated.

你觉得还有哪些人会没有未来？

Who else do you think doesn't have a future?

我

I

我不太喜欢问年轻人：你长大后想做什么？

don't like asking young people what do you want to do when you get older?

比如，你长大以后想做什么？

Like, what do you want to be when you grow up?

我不喜欢这么问，有几个原因。

There's a few reasons I don't like that.

首先，这容易让孩子觉得，我必须说我想当律师。

First of all, I think it can box kids in to think, oh, I have to say I want to be a lawyer.

对吧？

Right?

或者类似的职业。

Or something like that.

所以我觉得更重要的是问：你平时喜欢做什么？

So I think one of the things is you have to say, what are the things you enjoy doing?

我女儿就是个很好的例子。

And my daughter is a great example of this.

我觉得她可能真想当律师。

I think she would probably want to be a lawyer.

我觉得法律这个行业会变得特别有意思，因为现在你两秒钟就能生成一份法律文件，省下不少钱。

I think the field of law is gonna be a really interesting place cause now you can literally write up a legal document in two seconds, you know, and save the money on this.

所以我觉得律师这个职业就是一个例子——得往上走，把能自动化的部分交给机器，真正该专注的是策略、目标和谈判沟通这些事。

And so, I think the law profession is an example of, you know, lawyers are gonna have to elevate themselves to say, okay, Here's how we're automating the things that can be automated, and here's where the real focus should be as, you know, as we're incorporating strategy and what are we doing and how are we negotiating and communicating, you know, on that.

我觉得接下来会有翻天覆地的变化。

I think there there's gonna be so much change.

再说医生吧。

You know, doctors.

你懂的。

You know?

我觉得医生是永远没法被取代的。

I don't think are we ever gonna replace doctors?

绝对不可能。

Absolutely not.

但这件事特别有意思。

But it's so interesting.

我上次去皮肤科做年度皮肤检查的时候。

I was at my last dermatology appointment where they're doing my yearly skin check.

医生没有拿小镜子来看我的痣，而是直接用相机扫描我的全身，用人工智能来分析有没有异常。

And instead of the doctor coming and looking at my moles with a little mirror, you know, the doctor is literally taking a camera and scanning my body and using AI to analyze if anything.

你猜怎么着？

And guess what?

他们还能调出去年的记录，对比出这个痣今年和去年有什么不同。

They have the record from last year to be able to know, hey.

而人眼可能就只能说：我也不太确定。

That mole looks different than it did this year versus a human eye who's like, I don't know.

那医患沟通的能力，是不是变得更重要了？

Now does bedside manner become even more of an important skill?

当然。

Absolutely.

对吧？

Right?

这些地方确实需要发生一些改变。

You you know, those are some places where we're gonna have to see change.

所以我觉得，对于我们的学生来说，根本没法预知他们长大后想做什么。

So I again, I think with with our students, we have no idea what they're gonna wanna be when they get older.

但如果我们能帮他们培养出无论做什么都用得上的能力，那就很有意义。

But if we can help them develop the skills that that will be helpful in whatever they do

我觉得这个问题非常值得自己好好想想。

I think it's a very important question to ask yourself.

别只问自己想从事什么职业，而要问自己真正喜欢做什么，看重的是哪些技能和过程。

Instead of what profession you want to be doing, what you actually enjoy doing, the skills, the process.

是的。

Yeah.

这才是关键，因为职业本身会不断变化。

That's the key because professions are gonna change.

没错。

Absolutely.

我们让初中和高中的学生做一份‘人生意义’价值观图表。

We have our middle school students and our high school students do an ikigai values chart.

你擅长什么？

What are you good at?

你最喜欢做什么？

What do you love to do?

这个世界需要什么？

And what does the world need?

我觉得我们都应该定期重新思考这些问题。

And that is something that I think we should all be revisiting on a regular basis.

没错。

Absolutely.

作为成年人，我们也应该做这些反思。

Know, as as adults too, these are things that we should do.

这能帮助人们更清楚地思考：我想成为怎样的人？

And and that helps people kinda see, who do I wanna be?

我想做些什么？

What do I wanna do?

我想如何做出贡献？

How do I wanna contribute?

我想怎样去创造和建设？

How do I wanna build and create?

那这些又能在哪里派上用场？

And then where can this be helpful?

看看你能接触到哪些需求

Plug in to what what you can

然后想想哪些是你能帮上忙的

see as a need that's that you can meet.

你有没有想过，如果女儿毕业了却找不到工作，该怎么跟她们说？

Have you ever thought about what to say to your daughters if they graduate and they don't get a job?

这个世界变化得太快了

Like, this world, that's changing so fast.

这真是个很有意思的问题。

That's a really interesting question.

这个问题问得非常好。

That's a great question to ask.

我有个女儿正在读大学二年级，她一直在忙着找暑期实习。

So, yeah, I've got a daughter who is a sophomore in college, and she's, you know, was was hustling to find her internship for the summer.

我还有个女儿，她其实完全不一样，因为她是个很有名的网红。

And I've got another daughter who's really different actually because she's a very well known influencer.

哦。

So Oh.

她现在面临的是另一件事——得抓住这十五分钟的热度，想办法趁势成长和发展。

She's now she's got a different thing, which is she's gonna have to make sure to to take advantage of her fifteen minutes of fame and figure out how to grow and develop, you know, and move through that.

但如果她们找不到工作，这确实是个值得深思的问题。不过我这个人天生乐观，实在很难想象孩子们会像我当年那样，连份工作都找不到。

And so this but, gosh, if if they didn't get a job, I that's a very interesting question, and I I think I'm such an optimist that I really struggle to ever think that kids are gonna be in a position where I was I can't get a job.

我真正相信的是。

Here's what I do believe.

我觉得懂得努力工作的重要性非常关键。

I think the value of knowing how to work hard is important.

所以我觉得，总能找到一些事情做，关键是趁现在培养那些能经得起考验的技能，找到真正值得投入的工作。

So I would say there's gotta be some place that you can find, you know, work to get to do and make sure, you know, now that you're building those skills that are gonna be resilient and, you know, finding that work.

这又引出了另一个问题。

This this opens up such a another question.

我前几天在X上看到埃隆·马斯克发的一段话，讲的是当我们真正进入一个资源极度丰富的世界时，会发生什么。

You know, I think I was reading something that Elon Musk had posted, you know, on X the other day around, you know, what happens when we really are in a world of total abundance.

对。

Mhmm.

没错。

Right?

那时候我们可以实现全民基本收入。

Where we can have universal income.

我觉得，那时候我们更需要帮助人们找到自己的使命和热情，让他们每天愿意起身去创造，哪怕不是为了生计。

Again, I think there we have to help people plug into what they believe their purpose and their passion is so that they have a desire to get up each day and go create even if it's not out of necessity.

你帮孩子们弄清楚这一点，真是太棒了。

And that's what you help kids figure out, which is amazing.

他们不是一味听老师安排，而是去探索自己。

Instead of just following whatever is whatever teachers tell them to do, they explore themselves.

是的。

Yeah.

明白了。

Okay.

我最后一个问题是。

My last question.

我们来总结成一句话吧。

Let's do the one sentence takeaway.

如果有人看了这个，这周只做一件事，那会是什么？

If one person watches this, takes one action this week, what would it be?

不管是专业人士、家长，还是任何观看的人。

A professional, a parent, whoever was watching.
