A father, two kids, a lot of curiosity
Romane had put the ketchup with her socks and a screwdriver. Her criterion: “red stuff”. I had nothing to say. That's where this blog started.
My name is Julien. Romane is 6, Meryl is 3. I work in tech. One evening at dinner, Romane asked what “this AI everyone talks about” actually was. I searched for the right words. Nothing good came out.
I could have shown her ChatGPT. But I wanted something else: for her to understand the logic before the tool. Decision-making, sorting, pattern recognition. With her hands, not a screen.
So we started inventing games. Paper, dice, objects from the living room. Meryl mostly participated by knocking things over. And something happened: it worked. Not always as planned. But it worked.
This blog is what I noted along the way. What stuck, what failed, and what it taught us — them, and mostly me.
I'm not a teacher. I'm not an AI researcher. I'm just a father trying to pass something useful on, in a human and joyful way.
