  • Summary

  • Everyone’s talking about AI these days, but it’s not that often that you get to speak with someone who can really pull back the curtain on how the future of AI is taking shape. But that’s why you listen to Ways We Learn, isn’t it! Claire Zau is a Vice President at GSV Ventures, an early stage edtech Venture Capital firm at the forefront of transformative technologies that are shaping the future of education and work. Some notable early investments from GSV are Coursera, Classdojo, Degreed, Guild Education and many more that you’d recognize if you’re in the education space. Claire spends a lot of her time at the intersection of AI & education startups, and writes a weekly newsletter on Substack that you should check out (it’s linked below). She has a B.A. from Stanford and an Masters of Education from UPenn’s Graduate School of Education. We discussed the dynamics between incumbents and new ventures in the field of AI, the potential of AI deployment in educational spaces, retention and adoption rates of AI-enabled tools, the importance of user experience in AI applications, emerging trends in AI such as multimodality and personalized AI models and ethical considerations, and a lot more! 00:54 Introduction02:15 Claire's Background and Interest in AI03:35 AI in the Education Space: Current Trends08:20 AI Tutors and the Challenges of Differentiation10:42 AI and Privacy Concerns in Education13:36 The Future of AI in Education: Predictions and Opportunities19:25 AI and the Transformation of Video Content Creation24:21 Navigating Privacy and IP Rules in AI28:11 Adapting to New Educational Technology28:24 The Rise of EdTech and AI in Schools28:48 Differentiating Effective EdTech Tools29:07 The Importance of Product Retention and Stickiness29:49 The Role of AI in Lesson Planning30:42 The Trend of Premium AI Products31:11 Understanding Good Retention Numbers32:54 The Future of Corporate Learning and Development33:17 The Advantage of Incumbents in EdTech34:00 The Emergence of Knowledge Search Platforms35:23 The Potential of Personal AI Assistants40:40 The Future of AI in Education Links and further reading Claire’s newsletter: aieducation.substack.com Companies / AIs mentioned in this episode: Amazon Bedrock (https://aws.amazon.com/bedrock/)Bard (https://bard.google.com)Caktus (https://caktus.ai/)Chegg (https://www.chegg.com)Degreed (https://degreed.com)Glean (https://glean.co)GoGuardian (https://www.goguardian.com)Gradescope (https://www.gradescope.com)Gradient Ventures (https://gradient.com)Jasper AI (https://www.jasper.ai)Khan Academy / Khanmigo (https://www.khanacademy.org)Labster (https://www.labster.com)Lensa (https://lensa.com)Mem (https://www.mem.ai)Notebook LM (https://notebooklm.google/)OpenAI (https://openai.com)Photomath (https://photomath.com)Power School (https://www.powerschool.com)Project Tailwind (https://techcrunch.com/2023/05/10/with-project-tailwind-google-aims-to-make-note-taking-smarter/)Quizlet (https://quizlet.com)Sana Labs (https://sanalabs.com)Speak (https://speakai.co/)Synthesia (https://www.synthesia.io)Tana (https://tana.inc)Turnitin (https://www.turnitin.com)Wolfram Alpha (https://www.wolframalpha.com)
