Most learning curves in the education system today are very bumpy and don't adapt well to the specific student. Students get stuck on big bumps or get bored and demotivated at plateaus.
AI has potential to smooth out all curves so that students can learn faster and maximize time in flow.
I've spent literally thousands of hours thinking about this (and working on it). The future of education will be as different from today as today is to 300 years ago.
Kids used to get smacked with a stick if they spelled a word wrong.
There is a huge opportunity here to have the stick smacking be automated and timed to perfection.
