데브허브 | DEVHUB | Why Your AI Learning Projects Keep Fizzling Out
LLMs have made it absurdly easy to go deep on almost any topic. So why haven’t we all used ChatGPT to earn college degrees we wished we had majored in or pursued a niche interest, like learning how to name the trees in our neighborhood? I know I’m not the only one to feel guilty for well-intentioned attempts at autodidactism that inevitably peter out.
Entrepreneur Nir Zicherman has a reason for this disconnect: LLMs can answer most of your questions, but they won’t notice when you’re lost or pull you back in when your motivation starts to fade.
As the CEO and cofounder of Oboe, a platform that generates personalized courses about everything from the history of snowboarding to JavaScript fundamentals using AI, Zicherman has thought deeply about why the ability to access information does not automatically lead to understanding a concept. In this episode of AI & I, he talks to Dan Shipper about everything he’s learned about learning with LLMs.
They get into Zicherman’s counterintuitive belief that learning is a more passive process than you’d think, the biggest blocker for most people who want to learn something new, and where AI agents currently fall short in providing a meaningful learning experience.
