You are not wrong. What are you going to do about increasing children's time spent in nature? Post complaints about AI on Substack? *Rhetorical questions.

Thanks for the response.

What I am doing is creating a physical community food forest and Biocultural Refugia ( for more info: https://gavinmounsey.substack.com/p/designing-bio-cultural-refugia ) where children can plant trees, plants, tend them as they grow, harvest medicine and food from them, learn to preserve it, create art and save seeds.

My comments about AI are with the same intent I described to you elsewhere, to bring transparency and highlight inconvenient and uncomfortable truths , so that people can be in a better position to avoid the pitfalls in our path ahead.
