Given the trajectory that AI is taking in terms of being a very helpful code assistant, what type of CS education would be ideal for current elementary school kids? Sure, some will want to go all the way and be programming the AI; but for the rest, it would probably make sense to be able to use the tools in the same way that today's "tech savvy" can accomplish 10x as much as someone who isn't familiar with computers. What parts of computer programming will be necessary, and which parts can be summarized or jettisoned?
I ask this question as a mostly non-technical person, wondering what skills it makes sense to develop in my children, so they can "skate to where the puck is going", so to speak.
