The chapter delves into the origins of Khan Academy, its global impact, and the potential for AI to revolutionize personalized learning. It discusses the introduction of Conneganomy videos, the application of AI in grading papers, and the development of the AI tutor Kamego. The conversation emphasizes the transformative possibilities of AI in education while addressing challenges and the evolution of teaching methods.

Khan Academy first rocked the education world with online video. Now Khan Academy CEO and founder Sal Khan has gone all-in on AI, convinced that it has immense potential to democratize and improve education. Khan tells Rapid Response host Bob Safian how an early outreach from OpenAI led Khan Academy to create an AI assistant called Khanmigo, which is already being used by thousands of students and teachers. Khan shares lessons from this real-world experiment, plus the inspiration behind his new book, Brave New Words, and why the most educated among us tend to avoid the risks worth taking.
