Great Job, Jeremiah! AI is revolutionizing both fintech and edtech; enhancing efficiency, personalization, and accessibility. The Edtech domains are interesting for AI useage models and advancement - By analyzing their learning patterns, strengths, and weaknesses, AI systems can provide customized learning experiences that enhance student engagement and outcomes. The question is how can this be monetised (for early investors or entrepreneurs) or will AI create a ubiquitous learning environment for the world, therefore opening up education opportunities for domains that can't afford it i.e developed economies.
