00:04Traditional education is very important for foundational knowledge, for collaboration, for discussions,
00:12while immersive learning can offer another kind of advantage where abstract concepts need to be visualized.
00:25The modern kids are more tech savvy and the kids are players from birth.
00:32So we created MetaTask where the students and the teachers are entering the same virtual classrooms
00:38and they're learning different scientific concepts there.
00:50We created a private AI research lab and named it Another Mind, like Enum.
00:57It's more about understanding the logic behind how AI generates the answers.
01:03So it's not about AI gives the fastest and most convincing answer.
01:08It's more about how AI came to this answer, the logic behind it, which information is missing,
01:16which information were contradicting each other and how AI came to this conclusion.
01:26Not all the students, not all the people are learning at the same speed.
01:31So AI helps them to ask the questions over and over again until they can, the students can understand it.
01:39Putting aside that MetaTask is bringing clear value,
01:43support on development of a tech ecosystem.
01:47It is also inspiring the youth.
01:50The youth that want to develop themselves and see their future in innovation and technology spheres.
02:00I think what makes innovative education really interesting and beneficial is that it changes the student's role in the learning
02:08process.
02:08So in traditional education, for example, we usually sit in the classroom, we listen to the teacher,
02:15we look at a textbook or a presentation.
02:18And sure, yeah, of course that works.
02:20However, sometimes there is a gap between just hearing about something and actually experiencing it.
02:26And with an innovative education, we actually close this gap a lot faster and a lot more efficient.
02:32So instead of just being told about something, we listen to it, we hear it, we see it and we
02:39explore it and we also interact with it.
02:41So we actually look around, we see things, 3D objects,
02:45and we actually feel like a part of the lesson rather than just watching it happen.
02:49So when education is also interactive, it is much more engaging and it feels much more natural to us.
