#62Somebody here posted about a Socratic method skill for Claude (or whatever your LLM of choice is). I’ve found this to be fantastic. Dropped in a dense PDF about Linear Algebra, Postgres (those are the two I’ve gotten into so far). It’s basically just a skill.md that reads, “Here’s a document, give me an opening statement about the material and ask me a question. As I provide answers, guide me to simpler or more compl…

I recently used this to prep for interviews - I got the job :)

#63"Conventional wisdom says AI will replace people. I believe the opposite." So people will replace AI?
Same here. What a confusing statement.

#64Wait, when you say one-to-one you mean AI to Human? That’s not the same, I’m sorry.
Well, hold that thought, what if one-to-one means AI to AI...

#65Earlier quoted context omitted.
I don’t understand what you mean by “we don’t know”? Are you saying tech entrepreneurs don’t know education? I agree with that. Or are you saying we don’t know what problem to solve?
My interpretation of “we don’t know” is that the space of possible instruction methods is huge, and we don’t know what works best. It is easy to think of it as a kind of optimization problem, but that line of thinking quickly runs into a bunch of practical obstacles: different people learn differently, studies with good experimental design take time and resources so it is slow to iterate, and good teaching seems to r…
It's also quite possible that the method that works best for one person is completely horrible for another person, but that's just me guessing

What do you mean by “learning systems?”
I was referring to systems that are designed to teach people.
SCORM for example.

Roughtly, "AI will help people."
Here's I think how.
AI learns skills that people have, and replaces them.
vs.
AI helps people learn better and develop new skills faster.

Totally agree that the missing ingredient is making people want to learn. Which seems like something that gets harder every day.
