Learning in the age of AI
Path introduction
What AI is quietly changing about how we learn. A series on struggle, judgment, and which human skills get more valuable as generation gets easier.
What AI is quietly changing about how we learn
The most significant shift from AI tools in education is not what students can generate, but what they no longer have to struggle through first.
The skills that get more valuable when AI gets better
As generation gets easier, judgment about what was generated becomes the scarcer and more valuable skill. A look at what that judgment actually involves.
Why struggle is still doing something for your brain
Desirable difficulty is an old idea in learning science, and it explains why the easiest path to an answer is often the worst path to actual understanding.
Why explaining something out loud still works
Explaining a concept out loud, to another person or to nobody at all, remains one of the most reliable ways to expose a gap in understanding.
