The competitive advantage of #AI teachers to countries
The last two days were truly magical with our Oxford AI Summit
I will share more about this soon
But I wanted to share this one idea
Which came to me after the keynote from David Knott
David said that Sovereign AI i.e. countries investing in infrastructure and resources to build their own AI models may not be the way to go
That's a contra view to much we see today
But I see his point
But that begs the question:
If not sovereign AI, then what else can countries do to take the lead in AI?
The obvious suspects are skills, education, and lifelong learning
If you ask software vendors - you see the same promotional efforts
We need something else
I have been developing our methodology for rapidly teaching AI.
In the summit we (me, Anjali Jain and Ay?e Mutlu ) presented it and it was well received.
We now want to open it to a wider group i.e. teachers

Specifically, we believe that we could tie AI teaching to competitive advantages for nations
In contrast to a top down efforts like sovereign AI and spending billions, we want to undertake a more grassroots effort
This is a social initiative which we are undertaking through Erdos Research for teachers
Me, Anjali and Ayse are creating a position paper on this and also releasing our methodology for teachers
In terms of tools, we want to keep it open (and open source) - so we decided to go with LlamaIndex x based on Jerry Liu talk (from RAGs to agents)
We very much look forward to working with Jerry and his team
So, it would be a methodology (based on our work) combined with an agentic workflow using llamaindex i.e. an open #AI agent designed for teachers worldwide
To demonstrate the competitive advantage of AI teachers to nations, we would tie AI teaching to economic metrics ex sub-components of GDP and conduct more ongoing analysis like longitudinal studies
I would like to also thank James Elles for his inspiration for my work
also the wider Erdos team

9 个月Democratisation of AI and countries, regions, mega corporates developing their own ( proprietary ) AI eco system is counter arguments. Is there a way to break this narrative and reach a common ground to achieve both objectives. Democratisation and corporate aims / goals are opposite narratives So balancing both of them is a bigger challenge than usage of AI
love this. Feels like we don't talk enough of the transformative effect AI will have on teaching. Not only in a classroom setting but that everyone gets their own private tutor. Personally, that's where generative AI has had the biggest impact for me, I learn at an unprecendented rate. I would go so far as to guess that for example, master's programs in the future could be done at half the time with AI improvements on curriculum and everyone having their own AI tutor.
