Pleased to receive a Growth award from the @ToolsCompete to "supercharge" our #opensource adaptive tutoring project in an age of #GenAI, building off of recently published research. https://t.co/XEAIKfW5bq

Impressive learning results for ChatGPT prompted the study authors to boldly predict that “completely autonomous generation” of an effective computerized tutoring system is “around the corner." https://t.co/XKIMMWA28v via @jillbarshay

@markwarschauer Too clever for Twitter

[Zach Pardos @zpardos]

@markwarschauer The mystique is that OpenAI possesses a singular talent for progressing AI past its current frontier. There's some credibility to that, but as you point out, the market forces in this space are great and it may not be a viable business plan to shift into low gear.

OpenAI is on the verge of failure due to alignment issues

@GarronHillaire It took 5 minutes to "craft" the DALL-E prompt that generated the image? 🤔

What indicates that a course is going to be a lot of work or stressful? Not credit hours (r² = 0.06)

Course attributes like number of prerequisites and how much in advance assignments are posted explain 6x more

Time for a new measure?
