I'm hoping someone develops an interactive tutor that can teach any subject to any depth.
The tutor should optimize its pedagogy. It should use online RL to adapt to a learner's ideal learning style, model what the student understands and to what degree, and understand what the gaps and next steps are.
I'd subscribe in a heartbeat.
There's a skill for that (haven't tried myself but intend to; other of author's skills I've used have been a game changer).

Ask for analogy in terms of a thing you are an expert in.
ie. i am an expert at zig, explain this c++ in terms of zig
This is called college.
Broadly, universities are too expensive, inequitable, suboptimal, not portable, and slow. There's a huge amount of room for improvement.
Universities are great for networking, starting projects with other students (not the ones professors mandate), and learning lab sciences. In research, they're great for institutional knowledge, having a community of peers, getting guidance from research advisors, having real equipment and funding, etc. But there's a great need for AI tools to accelerate learning outside of that setting.
Anecdotally, I'm a working adult. I'm not going to waste time in college again. I need this for me.
