@nvidianewsroom @nvidia Bad idea

@elonmusk @SawyerMerritt @bot I want reset

My son loves the questions Grok Bot made for him.

Now he’s making up his own maths stories, in his own words, to create new word problems.

That’s the part I’m happiest about. He’s not just answering questions. He’s creating them.

[Marco W @MHW42]

My son can do the sums.

But change how the question looks, and he gets stuck.

I’m using AI to build practice around that gap.

Try this one: each block is the sum of the two below it.

What belongs in the middle?

[Marco W @MHW42]

Grok Bot is the best home tutoring agent I’ve used so far.

It helps me turn the problems my kids struggle with into practice made for them.

Thank you to @romanugarte_ and the Grok Bot team @mattyp for making this possible. @elonmusk Elon did the right thing.

This is why I like Singapore maths.

1. Start with something a child can hold. Then draw it. Then use numbers. That’s CPA: concrete, pictorial, abstract.

2. The bar model shows what the pyramid hides: one box gets counted twice. The picture gives the sums a reason.

3. My son is seven, in Grade 1, and can already solve Grade 2 problems. But I want him to explain his answer, not just get it right.

I used AI to make these exercises so we can practise that together.

The maths isn’t hard. Spotting what gets counted twice is.

1. The middle box belongs to both A and B. We see one box, but it goes into 300 twice.

2. Draw two bars, each with the same shaded part. Now we can see the two equal amounts.

3. Take away 106 and 104. That leaves 90. Split it equally: 45 each.

@0xCodez @bot any ideas?

[Marco W @MHW42]

I built an AI skill based on Andrej Karpathy's idea of explaining hard concepts step by step at a learner's level. It's open source if you want to try it:

1/ I homeschool my kids after school. Here are a few things I've learned as a dad.

2/ School and home do different jobs. School is where kids make friends, learn to lead, and work with others. Home is where we go deep on what each needs.

3/ My job is to spot what each kid is naturally good at and loves. That window is open while they're young, and I don't want to miss it.

4/ More study hours isn't the goal. If learning takes all their time, they'll hate it. I'd rather they get it quickly, then play and chase their interests.

5/ AI changed this. One-on-one help used to mean a tutor. Now kids get explanations that fit them anytime, giving them evenings back.

6/ Teaching them makes me relearn the basics, and I understand them better the second time. We both come out ahead.

My OpenAI subscription just got a lot more valuable.

@Michael_Fenech_ @bot try it

[Marco W @MHW42]

@mattyp Just a suggestion: @grok bot, when selecting sentences in a conversation to "add to chat," it jumps directly into a new conversation at the bottom, interrupting reading and requiring a scroll back. A small sidebar bubble dialog, or avoiding the jump to a new conversation, would be more user-friendly.
