The rush is on to build new applications of AI in education. Khan Academy was one of the first to build a large language model into their platform as both a tutor for students and assistant for teachers. This webinar will provide a behind the scenes look at how AI features were developed, including challenges faced, and risks considered. In addition, we will share what we learned from beta testing with several thousand students and teachers.
