All of these axes of life, it's worth spending the time doing that.

And obviously, we're in an era...

especially now where there are a million ways to waste time.

I sit on airplanes next to people and they're playing Candy Crush for the whole flight.

And I just feel like, what a shame because there's so much you can be putting into your brain and making happen.

You can be reading books, you can be listening to podcasts, anything like that.

Those are the main things for them to figure out how to do.

Yeah.

Here's something I find very optimistic about AI in the realm of education.
