    I’m begging people to shut up about AI. It isn’t there yet. It’s currently mostly useless or straight up data/property theft. Stop relying on AI, stop shoving AI into things, stop using AI as a buzzword.

    As a teacher let me tell you: It won’t work. This won’t actually help students because, 1) Kids and teens nowadays are already having an incredibly hard time focusing on anything for more than 2 minutes, so they won’t be reading long (3-5-line) answers to their questions. 2) If the AI can communicate through voice so they don’t have to read, they’ll forget and disregard everything it says since they’ll see it as nothing but a programmed machine designed to “trick” them into learning/studying.
    People have to stop creating things for children from the perspective of adults.

      Lol. As a teacher. You are pointing out a truth but falling into a logical fallacy.
      It is a simple truth that the internet by itself has opened up education and learning thru open information. YouTube also facilitated this thriugh community learning. AI will now open up personalized education for those who want it. If you don’t think this is a paradigm shift you are just not seeing the writing on the wall.

      No, you’re right, imposing your own biases on children is just as good smh

    I worry about how religiously AI goes along with anything you say. not just gaslighting it into believing something wrong, but getting “trapped” in tangents. Basically any time I try to use AI to help with some code related problem, it never knows what to do and I always end up needing to figure the whole thing out myself and all it can help me with is putting my explicit instructions into chunks of code.

    I home educated my 5 children for 30 years (my youngest is now 20). Khan Academy was new and had some innovative teaching ideas however, it was not for everyone. Finding a child’s learning style is so important. Perhaps you could offer a quiz for your on-line students and then gear the curriculum to meet their needs. My 23 yo has dyslexia & dysgraphia, he learned so well with audio books, The Great Courses videos, and lots of hands on robotics, but he disliked Khan. He just earned his Mechanical Engineering degree. My youngest enjoyed the competitive, self paced style of Khan and enjoyed getting to the next “level”. There is no stopping “progress” but please keep in mind, children all learn so differently.

    AI in education must become a necessity at this point ⚡️

The Controversial Climate Tool Funding Real Change | Sandeep Roy Choudhury | TED

If a company plants trees to offset its pollution, is that climate progress — or is it greenwashing? Critics of carbon markets say it’s the latter. But Sandeep Roy Choudhury, who’s spent two decades financing climate projects from rural cookstoves to coastal forests, says the real failure is discouraging companies from even trying. Hear his…

If a company plants trees to offset its pollution, is that climate progress — or is it greenwashing? Critics of carbon markets say it’s the latter. But Sandeep Roy Choudhury, who’s spent two decades financing climate projects from rural cookstoves to coastal forests, says the real failure is discouraging companies from even trying. Hear his case for why we shouldn’t let perfection block meaningful action on climate change. (Recorded at TED Countdown Summit 2025 on June 17, 2025)

Have you heard of aphantasia? Here’s what it is — and how to know if you have it #TEDTalks
