Coding is this idea of it's never been easier to create prototypes.

Hello and welcome to the OpenAI podcast where we're live from OpenAI Dev Day. Here sitting with me from school AI is Caleb Hicks. Caleb, hello.
Zach Lipton (0:28)
Hi.
Caleb Hicks (0:28)
Thanks for having me. This will be fun.
Host (0:30)
So Caleb, you are working on tools for helping educators and helping people basically in the classroom understand progress of students.
Caleb Hicks (0:37)
That's right, yeah.
Host (0:39)
So first off, what was your reaction so far to Dev Day?
Caleb Hicks (0:43)
A ton of fun I think. Makes it a lot of things to be excited about that help us build but also help students and teachers be more creative as well. So that'll be fun.

So what have you been working on over the last year? What has changed with AI that's accelerated what you've been doing?
Caleb Hicks (0:58)
Oh, I think probably the biggest advancement over the last year for us. So we, we put AI in students hands. That's the main, the main thing that we focus on is safe managed AI that can act as kind of one time personal tutors for students. And so probably the biggest challenge change from OpenAI has been model progression. I think we get two advantages from that. One is significant leaps in intelligence and the other one is, you know, improvements in cost. Because we are working with an industry that isn't known for paying big dollars for software, it's been important for us to be able to manage students using this in a cost effective way. So those have been the two areas that AI progression has helped from our work. It has been a lot of orchestration which I'm sure we'll talk about a little bit. Just getting different AI agents and models to work together for the best outputs for students in particular.
