It honestly shocks me given the number of people who have these exact same experiences that we cant do a better job of recognizing and supporting people.

You could put my photo and name in that and leave the text exactly the same and it would mirror my experience growing up.

I think its only a recent idea that people learn in different ways. Making a single curriculum is hard enough, making bespoke ones for each person tailored to their strengths and weaknesses requires far more resources than most educational systems have.

I really hope this can be improved with AI. A teacher can teach in ways that are effective for most students, but not all. But an LLM can scale up more than a teacher. Hopefully educators can somehow leverage that tech as a tool to multiply their own effectiveness.

No LLMs are not a solution to this problem in any way shape or form. This is a human problem that needs to be solved by humans.

They aren't a solution to the problem today, but they've advanced quite a lot compared to when I first had this idea like three years ago, and lots of tech companies continue to dump massive amounts of money into advancing it even more.

I'm not saying LLMs (or whatever the next big thing after LLMs might be) are the whole solution though. They're just tools.
