yeah im talkin to you!I
know you is ready to go on teh vacation, but before you do ... how
about taking a moment to ponder the future of your children.and their education, and what it might mean if we don't do shit about it today. ur thinkin "here we go [<:S emoticon indicating ambivalence] "stanford economist Eric Hanushek estimates that if we close even 1/2 the performance gap between the US and Finland, we could add $50,000,000,000,000 USD to our GDP over the next few decades. thats a lot of zeros ...

a lot of educational data is being thrown away (literally). Think
about all the worksheets and papers and psets and tests that you've
handed in, got some scribbles, and then got back, and thrown away. that

two MIT dudes in SF, backed by top VC's who you've probably read about,
bringing Deep Learning and AI into classrooms, making SATs, scantrons,
report cards, textbooks, etc, all of it obsolete. Our goal is to quantify education at scale.We think the education system should learn, all it possibly can, about you.If
you're passionate about education, and want to make big impact, and
build great team culture, we're in search of people who share our
mission.so reach out!batmanps. we hacked SF's housing market, what does that mean? Free Luxury SF Housing!!pps. some folks on campus know us pretty well, you can ask them about us.
