The Artificial Professor™ of Bio 101 may mark the initial application of our new technology, but the usefulness of artificial professors transcends entry-level science.
In fact, EKU technology offers a unique solution to a persistent challenge for knowledge professionals across disciplines: it effectively addresses the repercussions of the inherent contradiction between science and mastery of science.
While both the learning of science and science itself may be inherently driven by the quest for knowledge, the two are also inherently incompatible.
Learning is a process that demands time --- not just to acquire new information but especially to deeply understand and internalize the knowledge, which is crucial for true expertise.
Science, on the other hand, by its very nature, is ever-evolving. New research produces new findings that not only push the boundaries of existing knowledge but frequently also render previous understandings obsolete or require that they be reevaluated in light of new evidence.
As learners invest months or years mastering their field, the knowledge within it undergoes constant evolution.
Presently, with the research communication methods in existence, a knowledge professional simply cannot even begin to grapple with the thousands of new peer-reviewed publications that emerge daily.
Thanks to EKU technology, knowledge professionals will soon have the unprecedented ability to stay updated on the latest advancements in their respective fields.
In upcoming iterations of artificial professors tailored for knowledge professionals, our technology will systematize specialized knowledge fields into their fundamental EKUs, catalog them, and continually monitor their status by analyzing ongoing research publications. When a pertinent EKU is influenced by a new publication, the artificial professor will promptly inform the learner.
If you're a knowledge professional seeking to utilize an artificial professor in your domain, we encourage you to reach out to us!
