In a post on X, Musk wrote, “Whoa, I just realised that raising a kid is basically 18 years of prompt engineering.”
Responding to the post a user seeking advice on parenting asked, “Our first child will be born next month – what’s your biggest piece of advice?” In response, the billionaire said, “Be super careful about what schools teach your kids.”
Another user said, “Whoa, let us know if you ever raise a kid!”
Musk who is the father of 11 children had earlier shared his perspective on the value of traditional education, stating that colleges primarily are for fun and not learning.
“You don’t need college to learn stuff. Everything is available basically for free. You can learn anything you want for free. It is not a question of learning. I think colleges are basically for fun and to prove you can do your chores. But, they’re not for learning,” he was seen saying in a video.
“You can learn anything you want, thanks to the internet. College degrees just show completion, not understanding,” he added.
Musk had earlier said that, “Having children is saving the world.”
