I'm joined today by Dev Aditya of OIAI by Otermans Institute. We discuss the innovative use of small language models in education, the development and deployment of an AI teacher, and how AI can help to upscale marginalized communities. Dev shares insights into the challenges and opportunities of AI in education, the effectiveness of small language models, and the future of AI-integrated learning environments. He also touches on societal impacts, the balance between screen time and human interaction, and the fast-paced landscape of AI technology. Dev Aditya is an AI expert from London, UK. He is currently the AI product lead and CEO at Otermans Institute, where he led the team that built the first Digital Human AI teacher (OIAI).
