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.00:00 Introduction to Stephen Kosslyn and His Career01:01 Active Learning02:08 Retention in Learning03:40 AI's Impact on Learning04:18 Early AI Experiences09:56 Cognitive Amplifier Loop15:09 AI in Learning: Challenges & Potential23:18 AI Personalization Complexity28:45 Transfer Problem in Learning30:55 Problem-Solving & Cognitive Limits31:58 Evolutionary Learning & AI in Creativity35:45 AI Context Switching Challenges37:34 Student Motivation39:50 Innovative Teaching Methods42:22 Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Motivation54:11 Humanities in Learning55:36 Final Thoughts & Reflections For more prompts, tips, and AI tools.
