Is it a good idea to let a 16 yrs old use an AI assistant .i.e. chatgpt? (lemmy.ml)

What are pros and cons of doing this? What impact it will have on the personality / mind of the person down the line after say 10 yrs?

For fun? It's probably fine. As a substitute for human interaction and learning? No, no one should use chatgpt that way

I use ChatGPT for help in my MBA in actuarial sciences everyday. I always start with "pretend you are an statistics/probability/finances professor and I'm and advanced student. We are working on {topic} and I need help with {thing I didn't fully understood in class}" l. It have been fantastic. Even fkg Terence Tao is using ChatGPT as help in the most advanced mathematics is out there.
