Too bad the educational use case doesn't make any money. Good LLMs are a game changer for people motivated to learn.

Wikipedia doesn’t make much money but is still helpful. LLMs don’t need to make a whole bunch of money to be helpful.
People aren't paying trillions to train them to be helpful. They want to make quadrillions.
Ok
I don't want to learn from hallucinations where it will change its answers based on me questioning their teachings. I use it for conversations in a language I'm learning, but I quickly learned that asking it grammar questions for example is not a wise decision.
Curious whether you were just bare asking it questions, or whether you provided it with lessons one by one with instruction that the lesson is the baseline truth etc
Are we talking about human teachers or LLMs here?
This is such a lazy response to every LLM criticism
Not sure if its education, but there is huge money in the college admissions process, e.g., SAT prep.
Not enough to cover labs' expenses.
