And he's an AI guy pushing AI things in an AI hype cycle.
That said, some combination of AI + Wikipedia could probably do amazing things for teaching a student. Here's the thing: if the student trusts that he can ask any stupid question to an AI, a well trained one can probably walk students through concepts in any of thousands of different questions asked by previous students and lead them through to the end goal.
I can see the potential.
But these guys? No. Education should be humanist, not capitalist. You can already see it: look at the little entrepreneur parrots we created. This isn't education to benefit the child: it's marketing to the parents to get them to pay up because their precious child will become the next Bill Gates.
