Do you want to take away people's phones and their weed? Yeah, no phones, no weed aided.

And it helps. And when they do, it helps. Scores go up. I just want to point out for the audio listeners, Brendan just got a call in the middle of that sentence and had to put his phone down on his lap. Go ahead.

I'm getting fucking bored. In the middle of the sentence, reached out for his phone and looked down away from us.

These are Alpha Tate's three commitments. Tech bros, I'm sorry you had to wait a whole 25 minutes to talk about AI, but we're back into AI, dude. All right, let's talk about how AI is going to make everything better. And there's literally no downside, right? I can't think of any.

Okay, so I think there is an important premise to start with, which is that one-on-one tutoring of a student is shown to be vastly more effective. And there's been a lot of studies by this. I found one from the University of Chicago.

But the difference between having a teacher in front of a group of people who is giving the same lecture and the same broad lesson to everybody versus a one-on-one tutor is massive difference. And we all know this, right? That's why rich people pay for tutors for their kids. And then it always makes them do way better in school, right?

So if we agree with that premise, which has been around and known for decades and decades and decades, if we could transform our education system to be more like a one-on-one tutor experience, that could have incredible benefits for kids. So there are now studies going on with basically people using AI LLMs to have an AI tutor, essentially. So this is in early stages.

These are going to get way better. But even there's some studies in Nigeria and Ghana. One of them is crazy. In Nigeria, they had students in a six-week program for one hour a day after school. They talked to this LLM chatbot to help them learn English. And they tested that at the end. The six weeks was equivalent to two years of typical learning.
