Sara and Vas discuss what AI means for teachers, new graduates, and the broader education system– and whether it’s changing the investment landscape for edtech.

This Week’s Takeaways

1. Forward-thinking educators won’t play the AI “cat and mouse” game. They’ll put automation to work instead, tailoring lessons and giving students more hands-on reps.

2. Developing the next generation of knowledge workers will mean getting creative. As the entry-level job market tightens, companies should invest in apprenticeships that can track new graduates into roles less impacted by AI.

3. There’s opportunity in edtech, but it’s complicated. Baroque RFPs and knotty webs of stakeholders make selling into this market hard. Products need a sharp purpose. Do schools want specialized AI presentation tools, or can students just use Gamma?
