alt Hacker News>Khan Academy recently announced an overhaul of its product that provides students additional academic practice. Now Khanmigo is incorporated directly as a way students can get advice as they’re working through specific problems. A spokesperson said the organization made this change because “students were not seeking out Khanmigo’s help as much as we had hoped.”
Dear Lord, how is this any different from Microsoft sticking Copilot or Google sticking Gemini in every single offering? They're literally saying that people aren't using the chat bot enough so they're going to force it on people inside the product.
Well, there's a good way and a bad way to do this. Embedded AI (vs standalone AI) can do a lot of interesting things. For example, a good teacher will watch students and identify when someone is struggling (or thriving), and carefully offer to help, vs just waiting for students to approach them and aka questions.
