Manage episode 445367983 series 3555182
In this episode, we engage in a thought-provoking conversation with Stephen Kosslyn, former Harvard professor and dean, who has spent decades at the forefront of psychology, neurology, and educational sciences. Kosslyn shares his journey from academia to leading AI-driven educational startups, highlighting the critical differences between passive and active learning. He emphasizes the importance of 'learning by using'—a method where knowledge is applied in real-world, open-ended situations, which leads to better retention and creative application.
Kosslyn discusses how AI can serve as a cognitive amplifier, helping learners by storing vast amounts of information and enhancing critical and creative thinking. He also addresses the limitations of AI in handling context-specific, open-ended problems, which humans still navigate better. Drawing from his extensive experience, Kosslyn shares insights from his upcoming book, 'Learning to Flourish in the Age of AI,' set to be released in December. He underscores the enduring value of the humanities in an AI-driven world. This episode offers deep insights into the future of learning, where AI and human creativity intersect, fostering a new era of education.
