Tobin Slaven is the founder of Acton Academy Fort Lauderdale who was previously on the podcast in fall 2022 (episode #46) to talk about the launch of his microschool. I'm delighted to have Tobin back on the podcast today to kick off 2024 with a conversation about artificial intelligence, technology, techno-optimism, and the future of learning. In addition to leading his microschool, Tobin is also the founder of vPAL Labs, working at the forefront of developing AI companions that combine the roles of a personal tutor, life coach, and mentor.
