Turns out that capitalism in decay produces an environment which is actively harmful to human growth and flourishing. Who could have predicted that?

There needs to be a comprehensive education campaign for adults about the need for 1-5s to have actual engagement with learning tools, not just being plopped in front of tiktok for hours on end. Television was less harmful for these kids because they were being plopped in front of children's tv which was intentionally designed to be educational content.

For AI? There isn't a solution besides reworking our entire approach to work. Unsupervised work can not be trusted as a source of being the kid's own attempt at words anymore. Any progress gauging based on unsupervised work is not reliable.
