I have a friend who built out the AI enablement workstream / taught everyone cowork / managed skills / etc. at an old-school finance shop. she's now looking to do this full time somewhere else that's more forward thinking. Anyone hiring or have leads, can introduce.

The week that we launched our AI tutor Koji, “AI” as a topic was getting commencement speakers booed off stage. We were worried the launch was doomed, but instead it went super viral. Why? It turns out people aren’t “anti-AI”. They’re anti-idiocracy, anti-job replacement, anti-slop. But if you show them a product that will help them and their kids be better thinkers, they’ll embrace it. A positive, pro-social vision of AI is hugely resonant. Thanks @Jason @twistartups for having me on!

last week we launched Koji, @brilliantorg 's math and coding tutor. one of my favorite little design details is a dynamic glow effect that visually indicates when Koji is talking. to make it happen, we wrote a script to databind the audio waveform of Koji's voice, then built a preview environment that allowed us to fine-tune the effect before handing off to developers. you can read more about the process below

A great tutor is expressive! Thanks to our friends @rive_app for making it possible to break Koji out of the chatbox, and infuse him with joyful dynamic range.

'@tbpn: “Do you feel like you have a duty to make learning addictive?” No. My goal is for our tutor Koji to work himself out of a job. Koji offers more help when you’re doing conceptual learning, then steps back as you reach mastery. A great tutor creates students who ask the questions that were once asked of them.

Our household is a huuuuuuge fan of the @brilliantorg app Our 7yo is an avid DAU, deeply self-motivated to hit what Brilliant calls a “streak of the century” (smart naming) True story: The day the AI tutor showed up for him in the app, he ran to tell me “mama! mama! Brilliant gave me my OWN personal tutor and I can ask it questions even while you’re on your phone” 😅 Congrats @suekhim and team on this launch. Energizing the next generation to think and learn is an all-important mission, and as parents we all wish we had 1000x more hours in the day to teach our kids. We’re so grateful you’re building to empower kids (and parents!) everywhere.

School conditioned generations of kids to ask: “Will this be on the test?” The next generation will ask: “How far can I go?”

I'm such a huge fan of what @suekhim and the Brilliant team have built. When every kid in every country grows up with a 1:1 personalized AI tutor, we'll realize how much potential we really have.

POV: Thinking is cool again Insane response to the launch! I tripled the # of gift invites and only have a few left, then wrapping the promo. But, Koji is generally available today on Brilliant’s website/apps! Thank you all so much for the support.

Brilliant is about to launch an interactive universal tutor that will meaningfully interact with kids and guide them on their learning journey I was privileged to see a quick preview of Koji last week and I think it's truly amazing What a time to be alive

I’ve been an avid user of - and investor in - Brilliant for several years now. I’m so excited about Koji. With Koji, @suekhim and team have created a transformative new paradigm for kids to learn with AI.

I've been playing with Brilliant and the new tutor for a week now and love the depth of thinking the team has put into the smallest interactions of learning math & CS.

Sue Khim and the Brilliant team have long been some of the most thoughtful builders in education. So it should come as no surprise that their newest product teaches kids how to think. Give @brilliantorg and Koji a try.

Launch days are the best days. Our tax dollars should be going towards personalized education for all American students. I would nominate @brilliantorg as the best system there is for using AI to teach kids *how to think* through problems. Marvelous product and company.
