One of the unfortunate possibilities in our exploration of
Intelligence is that there ARE natural limits to the intellect.

That aside, there is an area where the strength and unwavering
perseverance of a machine are warranted: educating our young.

We need to create machines that can teach critical thought
to human children. We might also find it possible to develop
curricula that can be widely agreed upon. Such programs
could NOT replace human teachers, but would greatly amplify
their effect.

Comments, anyone?

I like it. For instance "I do not understand the way this math problem is being presented".

"Ok, how about this way?" Bingo.

I've been thinking that this might be a viable undertaking for an
antique institution that's outlived it's geopolitical salience ;)

They've got the money and need to make good on a promise or two.
