In this episode, Armaan and I interview Dr. Neil Heffernan, a professor at WPI specializing in AI/ML, specifically in the fields of education and personalized learning. We go into depth about recent developments in AI research, especially LLMs, and also talk about Dr. Heffernan’s biggest project: ASSISTments. The audio quality isn’t the same as usual as the interview was over Zoom, but we hope you enjoy. Make sure to tune in next week for the second part of the interview!
