I think a shift towards Oxford’s tutorial method [0] would be great overall and compliments your point.
“Oxford's core teaching is based around conversations, normally between two or three students and their tutor, who is an expert on that topic. We call these tutorials, and it's your chance to talk in-depth about your subject and to receive individual feedback on your work.”
We had something similar in Cambridge and it was extremely useful. I can't imagine how the course would have worked without it, honestly.
If AI can achieve this (and honestly I do not think GPT-4 is far off, at least for primary and middle school level stuff) it will be a far bigger win for education than the internet was.
What I find interesting is how this will affect perceptions of test fairness. A big argument for standardized testing is that the every student is evaluated the same. Considering how people can jailbreak these AIs, I wonder if the new form of test cheating would be based around that instead with this model.
