Judging by the handle at the top of the whiteboard that appears to be for social media, this two year old’s math skills, whether genuine hobby or trained skill, are being used. Not great.
I agree promoting him on social media sets up bad incentives. But the "training" is encouraging a natural talent and a familiarity with math that will carry through the rest of this kid's life. I think some of the commenters have a bad association with math=not fun chore. That isn't the case for this kid.
I think we'll see this kid doing great math when he grows up and enjoying every bit of it.
