It will be interesting to both make sophisticated education available to any student anywhere, but also diminish the value of a lot of what are now regarded as professions requiring high aptitude.

By "sophisticated" I mean potentially better than private tutoring because an AI tutor will have a superhuman span and depth of knowledge. Some nation-state is going to grasp the potential and create an economy and culture enabled by a super-educated population while many other places will struggle with giving up what seemed to be axioms of how education should work.
