Koji: World’s first AI tutor that teaches kids how to think, not memorize

A new artificial intelligence tutor called Koji is claiming to do what traditional education has struggled with for decades: teaching children to think critically rather than cram facts. The startup's backers say the system uses advances in machine learning to adapt to each student's reasoning patterns and guide them toward solving problems independently, a shift that could upend how millions of children learn—if the technology lives up to its promises. Early adopters and educators are watching closely to see whether an AI that prioritizes metacognition over memorization can actually close the gap between what schools teach and what employers say they need.
