follows this line of thinking I guess....
* Access to privileged or specialized knowledge is dead.
* What do models not have? Answers to things we don't know.
* Teachers can't teach things they don't know, they can only facilitate.
* If people don't care about something they will get bored and quit.
* When you care about something you will work on it without promise of resolution.
The entire operation needs to get much more comfortable with uncertainty.
“Answers to things we don't know.” This is an important point, we live in a way more complex world compared to even 5 years ago. My startup is working on building new learning infrastructure to address this without censorship.
Good stuff man! Just read a couple of your posts and like how you don’t sound like you are trying to fix things from the inside out.
Appreciate that! Good to know people like you are asking important questions around this topic.
I did try as a public educator for 15yrs to change the system inside out. Nope! Instead the system will change you. The only way is outside and above the system, creating new roads.
With increasing access to internet, ai, and bitcoin, we have a ripe opportunity to build new learning infrastructure. https://www.learningproducers.com/blog/pedagogical-wabi-sabiblueprint-for-developing-learning-infrastructure
