Introducing Eureka Labs (via) Andrej Karpathy's new AI education company, exploring an AI-assisted teaching model:
The teacher still designs the course materials, but they are supported, leveraged and scaled with an AI Teaching Assistant who is optimized to help guide the students through them. This Teacher + AI symbiosis could run an entire curriculum of courses on a common platform.
On Twitter Andrej says:
@EurekaLabsAI is the culmination of my passion in both AI and education over ~2 decades. My interest in education took me from YouTube tutorials on Rubik's cubes to starting CS231n at Stanford, to my more recent Zero-to-Hero AI series. While my work in AI took me from academic research at Stanford to real-world products at Tesla and AGI research at OpenAI. All of my work combining the two so far has only been part-time, as side quests to my "real job", so I am quite excited to dive in and build something great, professionally and full-time.
The first course will be LLM101n - currently just a stub on GitHub, but with the goal to build an LLM chat interface "from scratch in Python, C and CUDA, and with minimal computer science prerequisites".
