Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde sits down with Rob LoCascio, founder of KIDCompany, to explore why families need a new relationship with technology—and what it looks like to build an AI-native device designed for healthy childhood creativity and wellbeing. Rob shares the vision behind KID, where stories become interactive, kids can have real-time conversations with characters, and imagination turns into a place you can actually play. What does “safe by design” mean for an AI product made for children? How do you protect curiosity without limiting creativity? And in a world of passive screen time, what would it take to make tech that helps kids create more than they consume?
