Episode 71: Lifetime Learning

In this episode, Peter talks about the education system in the world being fundamentally broken and his belief that exponential technology will completely transform how we learn in the next decade. He gives an example where education is AI driven and able to curate an experience in AR, where digital avatars have conversations with you to create the most impactful experience you’d never have from reading a book. Dan and Peter agree the old system was not a system of inspiration or creativity, instead it was a system of doing what you’re told. The new system will be customized education, where AI is helping people learn in the best ways for them. Peter talks about the gamification of learning and gives an example of an unemployed workforce, playing games all day and learning. And once they master a certain level, an employer can offer then a job or a higher paying position.
