@vivekmurthy 9/ Julia's small signal that others are missing: AI companionship is the next social media. The horror stories we're seeing now aren't trickling down because they seem too extreme for regular people to relate to. We're ignoring the problem until it's too late.
@vivekmurthy 8/ The practical guidance for educators is telling: don't just demand better information from AI tools—demand more connections. Bake social connection into your requirements.
9/ The core tension: AI can democratize access to information and support, but relationships aren't just about information transfer. They're about cultural capital, mentorship, and the messy process of human development that can't be easily replicated by algorithms.
8/ Her solution pathway: experiential learning must become a "market imperative, not a pedagogical choice." But she's skeptical about whether market pressure will actually force educational institutions to change fast enough.
@davidblake @degreed @Maestro His prediction he'll be very right or very wrong about: "I'm going to send my children to a university of my making." It's either Dad's university or no university at all. 7/8
@davidblake @degreed His company built @Maestro - an AI tutor that runs on your desktop, not in a browser. Key insight: Most AI tools help you do tasks better, but don't make you smarter. Maestro is designed with "friction" - you need to struggle, get feedback, and practice to actually learn. 6/8
