The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Sal Khan no published score: only 2 usable exchanges on raw tape, and a fair score needs 8+ record → ← everyone

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q know, there's this assumption that with AI in the classroom, you know, every student is going to use it to cheat. They're never going to learn again, because why would they, right? They've got this, this assistant who can do it for them. So maybe just speak to that directly. What are you seeing in terms of maybe the reality, or what can be designed to maybe construe that reality?

A Yeah, I, I think, uh, ChatGPT has forced folks into one of two modes, either Have some assignments where you just say, use, use whatever help you want, and now I have a higher, and that's reasonable, because we now use it in the workplace, et cetera. There's another mode, even, you know, without technology, everyone said, okay, I guess we're gonna have to do more in-class proctoring now, things like that. Um, I think both of those are probably part of the mix. We, we think, actually, the most power happens when the AI works with the student. Um, so, So, like in, in a couple of months we're going to be launching something, we're going to initially do it for college essays, which is a whole other, this is the first college admission cycle in the chat GPT era, so it's going to be very interesting. Um, but we've created activities where it can interview the student and help surface things that would make for good college essays, so brainstorm with the student, not for the student.
