Transcript
I think that AI may actually break education. I think the internet was the first leg on the stool to break higher education. The internet democratized access to information and knowledge. You can watch MIT graduate courses. That's an incredible transition that's happened for humanity, for society, for the world. AI is the next leg of the stool to break. And I think that AI may actually break education. It may break higher education and then eventually it may make its way all the way down to childhood in terms of rethinking from first principles. How do we educate? And we could see kids in Africa and kids in South Asia getting the equivalent of a Harvard graduate school degree at a cost
of zero through personalized tutoring enabled through AI and the ubiquitous access to knowledge and information. So that core function of the university I think is broken and they're now starting to reconcile what that actually means for the long-term viability of all of these higher educational institutions in the United Eggs.
