An idea I have been thinking about: Increasingly powerful chatbots provide more teaching capacity. I think this will lead to counterintuitive outcomes like teaching environments where the human student is not allowed to use any device but is being taught and tested by a synthetic intelligence.
- dylanowen 6mo agoThat sounds very dystopian. The ai teacher part, not the no devices part

Every child can have a personalized tutor in addition to human teachers.
