Sam Altman on 'Mostly Human' Podcast: Plans to Delay Son's AI Exposure, Distrusts Infinite Scroll
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman told podcast host Laurie Segall on April 3 that becoming a father in 2025 fundamentally shifted his perspective on algorithmic feeds, and he plans to delay his son's interaction with AI while limiting exposure to infinite scroll interfaces. Altman described seeing children 'slightly older than his own who become inconsolable when a tablet is taken away' and said he wants his son 'playing in the dirt.' He envisions schools providing 'a few hours of intense, personalized, one-on-one tutoring with AI' balanced by human-led projects — a notable admission from the CEO of the company building these systems.
