Read this book. It's the most fascinating and important account of how AI will transform the way we learn.
--Walter Isaacson, #1 New York Times bestselling author

From the founder of Khan Academy, the first book on the AI revolution in education, its implications for parenting, and how we can best harness its power for good.

Whether we like it or not, the AI revolution is coming to education. In Brave New Words, Salman Khan, the visionary behind Khan Academy, explores how artificial intelligence and GPT technology will transform learning, and offers a road map for teachers, parents, and students to navigate this exciting (and sometimes intimidating) new world.

A pioneer in the field of education technology, Khan examines the ins and outs of these cutting-edge tools and how they will revolutionize the way we learn and teach. For parents concerned about their children's success, Khan illustrates how AI can personalize learning by adapting to each student's individual pace and style, identifying strengths and areas for improvement, and offering tailored support and feedback to complement traditional classroom instruction. Khan emphasizes that embracing AI in education is not about replacing human interaction but enhancing it with customized and accessible learning tools that encourage creative problem-solving skills and prepare students for an increasingly digital world.

But Brave New Words is not just about technology--it's about what this technology means for our society, and the practical implications for administrators, guidance counselors, and hiring managers who can harness the power of AI in education and the workplace. Khan also delves into the ethical and social implications of AI and large language models, offering thoughtful insights into how we can use these tools to build a more accessible education system for students around the world.

A free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere: this is the goal of the Khan Academy, a passion project that grew from an ex-engineer and hedge funder's online tutoring sessions with his niece, who was struggling with algebra, into a worldwide phenomenon. Today millions of students, parents, and teachers use the Khan Academy's free videos and software, which have expanded to encompass nearly every conceivable subject; and Academy techniques are being employed with exciting results in a growing number of classrooms around the globe.

Like many innovators, Khan rethinks existing assumptions and imagines what education could be if freed from them. And his core idea-liberating teachers from lecturing and state-mandated calendars and opening up class time for truly human interaction-has become his life's passion. Schools seek his advice about connecting to students in a digital age, and people of all ages and backgrounds flock to the site to utilize this fresh approach to learning.

In The One World Schoolhouse, Khan presents his radical vision for the future of education, as well as his own remarkable story, for the first time. In these pages, you will discover, among other things:

• How both students and teachers are being bound by a broken top-down model invented in Prussia two centuries ago
• Why technology will make classrooms more human and teachers more important
• How and why we can afford to pay educators the same as other professionals
• How we can bring creativity and true human interactivity back to learning
• Why we should be very optimistic about the future of learning.

Parents and politicians routinely bemoan the state of our education system. Statistics suggest we've fallen behind the rest of the world in literacy, math, and sciences. With a shrewd reading of history, Khan explains how this crisis presented itself, and why a return to mastery learning, abandoned in the twentieth century and ingeniously revived by tools like the Khan Academy, could offer the best opportunity to level the playing field, and to give all of our children a world-class education now.

More than just a solution, The One World Schoolhouse serves as a call for free, universal, global education, and an explanation of how Khan's simple yet revolutionary thinking can help achieve this inspiring goal.

This thesis explores the dimensions and causes of social income poverty in Rural Pakistan, focusing on nutrition and health. The analysis also tests the 'efficiency-wage' hypothesis which links better health to better income via higher productivity. The results show that serious nutritional and health poverty exists within the sample. Other key findings are: firstly, the need for subsidised food and nutrient support programmes is emphasised; next, the potential of food prices as policy tools to improve health and nutrition emerges repeatedly; and thirdly, human capital (in particular own education and mother's schooling), as well as village facilities such as health care, sanitation, and water supply, are consistently observed to boost nutritional and health status of both children and adults. The existence of an 'efficiency-wage' nexus is also supported by the findings. In general, the need for investment in human capital and social infrastructure emerges strongly, with clear intrinsic benefits, but also due to the spinoffs it generates in terms of higher potential levels of productivity, and hence overall economic development.

Facharbeit (Schule) aus dem Jahr 2016 im Fachbereich Geschichte - Afrika, Note: 1,66, Veranstaltung: Religion und Gewalt, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In dieser Arbeit werde ich mich mit dem Thema des israelisch-pal stinensischen Konflikts befassen, dabei werde ich vor allem auf die religi se Rechtfertigung der Gewalt der j dischen Siedlerbewegung eingehen. Der Konflikt nimmt eine besondere Stellung im Themenbereich Religion und Gewalt ein, da er einer der langwierigsten der Konflikte ist und beide Seiten Religion als Rechtfertigung f r ihre Gewalt nutzen. Des Weiteren werde ich die anderen weltlichen Gr nde f r die anhaltende Gewalt erl utern, die eine unterst tzende Wirkung auf die j dische Siedlerbewegung haben. Am Anfang meiner Arbeit werde ich noch den n tigen historischen Hintergrund geben, der f r das Verst ndnis der Entwicklung und des Einflusses der Siedlerbewegung auf den kompletten Nahost-Konflikt entscheidend ist.

Motivation is something that may drive an individual towards success. Hence, it is essential to stay motivated at all times to view life in an upbeat way. As everyone differs from another, a person's path to be motivated also varies depending on their priorities. It is quite reasonable to see what may drive one, might not capture the interest of the other person. Motivation isn't simple, as determining it in you and the necessity you need in life often is hard to decide upon. Nevertheless, putting the information forward & taking charge of the reins is the best mindset to increase motivation within yourself.

Computer vision has become increasingly important and effective in recent years due to its wide-ranging applications in areas as diverse as smart surveillance and monitoring, health and medicine, sports and recreation, robotics, drones, and self-driving cars. Visual recognition tasks, such as image classification, localization, and detection, are the core building blocks of many of these applications, and recent developments in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have led to outstanding performance in these state-of-the-art visual recognition tasks and systems. As a result, CNNs now form the crux of deep learning algorithms in computer vision.

This self-contained guide will benefit those who seek to both understand the theory behind CNNs and to gain hands-on experience on the application of CNNs in computer vision. It provides a comprehensive introduction to CNNs starting with the essential concepts behind neural networks: training, regularization, and optimization of CNNs.The book also discusses a wide range of loss functions, network layers, and popular CNN architectures, reviews the different techniques for the evaluation of CNNs, and presents some popular CNN tools and libraries that are commonly used in computer vision. Further, this text describes and discusses case studies that are related to the application of CNN in computer vision, including image classification, object detection, semantic segmentation, scene understanding, and image generation.

This book is ideal for undergraduate and graduate students, as no prior background knowledge in the field is required to follow the material, as well as new researchers, developers, engineers, and practitioners who are interested in gaining a quick understanding of CNN models.

Akademische Arbeit aus dem Jahr 2019 im Fachbereich Jura - Sonstiges, Note: 15,8 Punkte, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (Völkerrecht), Veranstaltung: Seminar Völkerrecht ohne Territorium, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Ist die International Seabed Authority (ISA) dafür geeignet, die Ressourcen des Meeresbodens für die Menschheit zu verwalten? Diese Frage wird in folgender Arbeit untersucht. Zunächst wird die Rolle der ISA als Organisation zur Verwaltung von Tiefseeressourcen im Namen der Menschheit analysiert. Daraus wird ein rechtspolitischer Erwartungshorizont an die Organisation bestimmt. Daraufhin wird der Status der ISA, d.h. der Rechtsrahmen skizziert. Hierauf wird anhand ausgewählter Problemfelder bestimmt, inwieweit der Rechtsrahmen den aufgestellten Erwartungshorizont erfüllt. Zum Abschluss wird ein Fazit getroffen. Die Entwicklung vom strengen Lotus-Prinzip zu einer kooperativeren Form des Völkerrechts verbreitet sich und steht auch in der nächsten Zeit vor gro en Herausforderungen. In keinem Bereich spiegelt sich dies so gut wieder wie in Staatengemeinschaftsräumen. Diese Räume zeichnen sich durch fehlende Besiedlung und dementsprechend fehlender Rechtsordnung aus. Dazu gehören der Weltraum und die Antarktis, die aufgrund ihres Rohstoffreichtums das Interesse vieler Staaten auf sich ziehen. Doch wie sollen diese Rohstoffe verwaltet werden? Ein interessanter Lösungsansatz hat sich in einem weiteren Staatengemeinschaftsraum entwickelt: Dem Meeresboden. Dieser und seine Ressourcen au erhalb nationaler Jurisdiktion wurden im Rahmen des Seerechtsübereinkommens (SRÜ) zum gemeinsamen Erbe der Menschheit (CHM) erklärt. Zusätzlich wurde eine internationale Organisation zur Verwaltung der Ressourcen gegründet - die International Seabed Authority (ISA).
