Secrets of Successful Kids: Grit, Purpose, and Artificial Intelligence
We need to create a belief that their hard work will pay off by creating a world where it will.

Artificial intelligence has emerged as an effective tool for predicting long-term outcomes, but can it also help maximize a child’s potential? How do we cultivate characteristics in our youth that will lead to a fulfilling adulthood? What can early coaching accomplish?
