Post: 'What makes online learning work, now that AI is reshaping education?' AI has taken the world by storm with promises of speed, scalability, and personalized support. While AI is rapidly being adopted in education, the human brain hasn't fundamentally changed for hundreds of thousands of years. The way we learn through meaning, relevance, practice, and social interaction remains the same. Over 1,000 learners have joined Kiron's AI and Human Skills pathways since January. They report applying AI tools directly in their jobs, improving communication, navigating workplace challenges with more confidence. 39 reactions, 6 comments, 2 reposts (now 7 comments after).
Theme: Online learning design, the human substrate AI cannot replace, social interaction in learning
Comment posted:
Meaning, relevance, practice, and social interaction surviving the AI overhaul is the part most edtech demos quietly skip, do you find learners themselves push back when the social interaction piece gets engineered out?

Post: 'Does AI care? What does it mean to "personalise" education using AI? Every VC/funded EdTech in town seems to be harping about how AI is going to change education through personalisation. They are wrong.' Their hypothesis is that a 24/7 chatbot that solves doubts at breakneck speed solves quality education. At Mauka they build AI-enabled platforms for communication practice and tell trainers: this platform helps you, it cannot replace you. 'Personalisation is about care. Not about attention.' Cites Sal Khan's admission that Khanmigo was a non-event for most students because AI is like a teacher sitting in the back waiting for students to come to them. What made favourite teachers good was that they cared. 'Good teachers will always be in demand because they care. AI does not.' 13 reactions, 1 comment, 1 repost (now 2 comments after).
Theme: Personalisation as care vs attention, AI cannot replace teacher caring, K-12 founder critique
Comment posted:
The personalisation-is-care-not-attention reframe is the part most edtech roadmaps quietly misread, do you think care can be engineered into product behaviors or is it irreducibly a teacher property?

Post: 'the type of unhinged support requests we get at supermemory.... amazing tbh'. Screenshot showing an AI-routed support workflow where a user asked the supermemory agent 'i want more followers on my instagram' and then 'i want more followers on my instagram https://www.instagram.com'. Workflow tagged as 'AI reply workflow' assigned to Memory agent. Showing real-world unhinged off-topic queries hitting the memory layer in production. 19 reactions, 1 comment (now 2 comments after).
Theme: Memory layer adoption, weird real-world queries, agent infra at scale
Comment posted:
Off-topic memory queries are the part where adoption actually shows itself because the showcase prompts never look like this in the wild, do you find the funny ones are mostly users probing limits or genuinely confused intent?
