Are Chat GPT and Other Large Language AI Tools a Deathblow for Math Education?

Today's episode is about AI in Education, but more specifically
we're talking to the guy I once designated without his
permission, my New Math Therapist back in Episode 76. Dan Meyer
and I talk in this episode about AI's relationship to teaching
math.


Dan Meyer is the Chief Academic Officer at
Desmos


Dan loves questions, the kind that rattle around in your brain at
all hours, in the shower, etc. Math always had the most
interesting questions for him as a kid. Then math education as an
adult. He’s chased those questions through several continents,
with thousands of teachers in talks and workshops, in a doctoral
program at Stanford, finally landing at Desmos part time in 2012
and joining full time in 2015.


Dan Meyer taught high school math to students who didn’t like
high school math. He has advocated for better math instruction on
CNN, Good Morning America, TED.com and Everyday With Rachel Ray,
and is the author of the dy/dan blog. He earned his doctorate
from Stanford University in math education and is the director of
research at Amplify, where he explores the future of math,
technology, and learning. Dan lives in Oakland, CA.
