BRAVE NEW WORDS

The AI wave is coming to education. Everyone it approaches will have to decide whether to ride it or be tossed by it. Since Salman started a revolution in how kids learn with Khan Academy over a decade ago, he has been at the forefront of amplifying technology's ability to improve academic achievement and in doing so, has become "America's teacher".

In his new book, BRAVE NEW WORDS, he addresses the next revolution and what it will mean for our schools', our families' and, most importantly, for our children's future. Rather than approaching the sea change brought on by ChatGPT with white-knuckled fear, Sal wants parents and teachers to embrace AI and adapt to it (while acknowledging its imperfections and limitations), so that every student can engage with their education in profoundly new, creative and exciting ways that also level the playing field by providing an equitable, highest-quality education to kids of every economic and ethnic background. Sal sees a near future in which all students have lesson plans crafted specifically for their unique needs, an AI tutor that's always alongside them to identify their learning gaps and cultivate their potential, and much, much more. BRAVE NEW WORDS won't be the only book written about AI and education, but it will be absolutely unique in that it comes from the remarkable mind of Sal Khan, an insider working with the newest version of GPT and incorporating it into his education platform where it will dramatically change the lives of millions of students, teachers and parents. When it comes to the exciting and rapidly evolving world of AI and GPT, Sal Khan is the perfect guide. As the founder of Khan Academy, an online platform helping educate 150 million registered users from 190 countries, Khan is a pioneer in the field of technology and education. He is under NDA currently, but in the coming months it will be clear that he is acting at the epicenter of AI, education and work in a way that will make chatGPT look like the appetizer course of a sumptuous meal. Khan also brings an impressive technical background to the table, with an undergraduate and master's degree in computer science from MIT and experience at the dawn of the internet revolution. With an MBA from Harvard Business School, countless hours invested in teaching Khan Academy courses that have been viewed by millions, and significant experience as a hedge fund analyst, he offers a unique perspective on AI's impact on education. Perhaps most importantly, Khan is known for his ability to break down complex ideas in ways that are clear and accessible. A teacher, historian, and economist, he has taught everything from finance and capital markets to art history and advanced chemistry online. Millions have learned from him directly, but BRAVE NEW WORDS might be the most important lesson he's ever delivered. Salman Khan has been profiled by 60 Minutes, featured on the cover of Forbes, and recognized as one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People in the World. His existing TED talks have been viewed 10+ million times and he's been invited to give one on the power of AI and education this April at TED2023.
