Dr. Kristen DiCerbo is Khan Academy's Chief Learning Officer and drives the company's product, education and learning strategy – with AI at the forefront.

Khanmigo is great. It's Khan Academy's GenAI-powered product that helps students learn and teachers teach – and could revolutionize education.

Khan Academy is used by 12 million students every month! And they are an early adopter of GenAI.

Khanmigo coaches students in math and English, helps teachers create lesson plans, ensures parents can get help when helping their children with their homework, and much more…

In this episode of CRAFTED. Kristen shares how they build with Generative AI – and how you can learn from their experiences to build your own AI experiences.

We explore how Khan Academy:

Built with the unpredictability of GenAI in mind
Helps GenAI get good at math (and also built a UX that masks the ways it's bad at it)
Gave Khanmigo an 'inner monologue' that helps it slow down and better guide students
Built a 'prompt playground' where they can evaluate different prompts
They've built a "prompt library" where they can maintain prompts
Use fine-tuning, red teaming, hackathons and more…

Sal Khan's new book is titled “Brave New Words: How AI Will Revolutionize Education (and Why That's a Good Thing)” – In this episode we explore how and why!
