DAE think AI for learning is pointless? I did until I tried it for real.

I used to be sure that AI tools for study were just dumb programs that spat out answers. Then I got stuck on a physics concept about waves, and my usual methods weren't working. On a whim, I loaded up this AI tutor app a classmate mentioned. It walked me through the problem with simple questions, not just solutions, and even drew little diagrams to help. I rambled a bit at first, thinking it wouldn't get my confusion, but it circled back and broke things down in a way that clicked. Now I see how it adjusts to how fast or slow you learn, which is pretty cool. I'm totally switched on to the idea that AI can actually teach stuff, not just check boxes. It's like having a helper that never runs out of patience.

Yeah, @iris175 reminded me I read AI tutors adapt like real ones.

Felt the same way at first.

That "adjusts to how fast you learn" part is key, so just tell it to explain things simpler if you're stuck.
