In the second episode of our AI + Education Series, we discuss ideas on education reform, emphasizing the need for curriculum changes to integrate employability skills. We touch on neuroscience, statistics, computing education, and more.

Sam Saarinen is a dynamic entrepreneur, has a doctorate in applied AI from Brown University, and is the founder and CEO of Edapt Technologies. Edapt Technologies created Quizius, an AI tool for law students. Quizius uses AI to predict knowledge loss, schedule study sessions, and provide feedback. It also uses large language models (LLMs) for tasks like generating questions.

With his unique perspective, he critiques the current education system for its one-size-fits-all approach and advocates for a more diverse and specialized model.
