Had a great interview with John Furrier at
@mcpsummit in NYC. We covered a lot of topics on open source AI, Kubernetes and AI deployments, and
#Graph technology as the Knowledge Layer for AI, but we got into something I am super passionate about, which is improving AI education in our schools.

I linked the video at the start of the segment, but I think a great quote for my message is:
"This isn't a failing of our students, this is a failing of our education system."
We are graduating a generation of computer scientists who are not fluent in AI tools and therefore don't have marketable skills for where the software industry is heading. The first introduction to coding should be prompting, not Python syntax. And students should be given token budgets, not textbooks.
