General language models like ChatGPT aren't built for teaching young kids to read. Purpose-built apps like Ello and Amira work better. The speaker's six-year-old daughter learned to read with just 20 minutes daily practice using Ello.
If you talk to Claude or you talk to ChatGPT or Gemini and you're four years old, you're not going to learn how to read. Like, no, it's not going to happen. But if you use Ello or Amira, like, you know, with my daughter, when she was about six, I started using Ello with her and I was like, pretty convinced that if she just did that for 20 minutes a day, she would learn how to read. Which was like, just spectacular that I really didn't think she needed much human tutoring to learn how to read, given that app. And you can imagine how many crits across the world that would just be game changing for.
