I wasn't great at exams, but I think if I re-did university today I'd still do much better because my personal learning style is best when I talk through the material with someone. Sitting in a lecture listening to someone monologue at me, reading a static textbook, those weren't great. But with LLMs every student now has full-time access to a "live tutor" with infinite patience and no sense of social risk from asking it dumb questions. It's absolutely my perfect learning environment.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwZi58u1FjI - The Dragon Speech All the higher mammals learn by playing, by doing, by interacting. And indeed, the higher the mammal, the more of its life it spends in play to prepare itself for adulthood. So you can see, this active role of the mind is fundamental to the way we think. It’s wired into our brains. It’s a really great speech, and a lot of it is about the failures of our educational system.
