honestly, i keep thinking about this result and it's just absurd. in the 2022 PISA, el salvador scored 343 in math, 365 in reading, and 373 in science near the bottom of PISA, close to guatemala and dominican republic now the country has developed a program for education modernization in a pilot group of public schools with 1:1 AI tutoring and personalized learning after the pilot had been running for BARELY OVER A YEAR, students got results comparable to germany and sweden. that's more than an entire standard deviation that is fucking insane we should be talking about absolutely nothing else if you actually care about poor children and equality of opportunity, the possibility of giving every child on earth an individualized tutor for a fraction of the cost of human 1:1 tutoring should be one of the most exciting developments in human history. "it's all in the environment tards" should be drooling at the news every government on earth should be running massive randomized trials of this right now, and if the effect survives, scaling it as fast as physically and humanly possible for every child on earth the funniest part is that while the supposed "fascists" are celebrating poor kids learning, the people supposedly obsessed with inequality are barely talking about it, and if anything are banning AI in schools revealed priorities are funny like that
