Will the kids who miss the important parts of training miss out on being able to use AI effectively? It should be easy enough for them to use without training…

Why do you presume that it should be easy enough for them to use without training? Keyboards are a pretty simple technology, and serve as a subset of the primary interface to most modern AI models, but training is still required to use them well. A user who's never learned proper keyboard skills will type much more slowly and with much more frustration than you or I can, and that will have meaningful impacts on their ability to perform tasks requiring a keyboard.

It's just a kind of training that's receded into the background as "normal", and that many of us who enjoy recreationally typing out comments on the Internet self-taught.

		I didn’t learn writing, speaking, research skills from typing out comments on the internet. I was required to use hand written note cards up until I graduated high school (heck even had blue book tests in college). The first paper I ever wrote was hand written. When we did start using computers, none of those skills were altered by passive internet chatting. So AI training is going to be a basic communication course? Because AI is sold as being easy to use without training and as modeled after existing human social constructs, hence artificial intelligence.
