LLMs will revolutionize education for those that care to learn. They will have at least as large an impact on access to knowledge as wikipedia had ~25 years ago.
- intended 4mo agoI went down this rabbit hole, and if you see the MIT study, its not calculators anymore. Also - which kid (or adult) wants to study instead of just play? Furthermore, Wikipedia (and calculators) were largely free, nor did they come with a side of white collar work automation.
