At 2Sigma School, we're committed to preparing students for success in today's digital age. 💻 Equipping them with tech skills early on is key to their future achievements. 🌟 While apps like Gauth AI offer valuable resources, we believe in a holistic approach. We prioritize initiatives that foster critical and creative thinking alongside these tools. 🧠 Enroll in our latest course, "Introduction to Gen AI," designed to teach high school students how to build real-world applications in Python using Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPT), Large Language Models (LLMs), and other Gen AI models. Don't miss out: https://lnkd.in/eEP6BKGr 🤖 #Education #LLMs #GPT #AIforEdu
Gauth AI, an app that uses generative AI to help school-aged children do their homework, has surged in popularity in recent months, skyrocketing to #2 in the Education category in both Apple and Google’s app stores. Owned by ByteDance, it has been downloaded more than 10 million times on Android phones alone, and until recently, its website boasted that it had supported more than 200 million students. But its Chinese ownership could pose problems as TikTok — the most famous app owned by ByteDance — fights for its life against lawmakers in Washington D.C.

🚨 The Stark Reality of Computer Science Education in Public Schools 🚨 In our rapidly advancing digital world, the gap in computer science education within public schools is more than just a bump in the road—it's a gaping chasm. Despite the critical role technology plays in our lives, the investment in computer science education is startlingly insufficient. Case in point: Washington spends billions on math and science, yet allocates a mere $1 million to computer science education. This stark discrepancy highlights a broader issue faced nationwide: severe teacher shortages, budget constraints, and a dire need for resources. It's a scenario where our students risk being left behind, unprepared for the demands of college and the job market in a tech-centric future. 🔥 Partner with 2Sigma School 🔥 2Sigma School stands as a beacon of innovation and support for public schools navigating these challenges. We recognize that coding and tech skills are as crucial as literacy in today's world. That's why we offer a turn-key solution to bring comprehensive computer science education directly into the classroom. Our mission? To bridge the gap, making computer science accessible and engaging for all students, regardless of budget constraints or resource shortages. We're here to empower educators with the tools and support they need to inspire the next generation of tech innovators and creators. Public school leaders, let's join forces and ensure no student is left behind in the digital age. Ready to make a change? Let's connect. #EducationReform #ComputerScience #PublicSchools #InvestInOurFuture
