Many educators and students can’t help wondering: What are we doing here? What’s the role of education when AI seems able to do tasks that once seemed uniquely human. The goal of Learning Curve is to inform a conversation about what it means to learn, whether AI could improve education, and what kinds of learning needs protecting amid the AI gold rush.

Jeff Young is the host and creator of Learning Curve. He’s also a freelance reporter writing for The Chronicle of Higher Education, The Hechinger Report, and other national publications.
