Theoretically Speaking
The scale of global societal problems looks daunting. One person, or even a small team, is minuscule relative to the number of people who need help. For example, since ChatGPT has exploded onto the scene, our children's future employment prospects (and current educational experience, with ChatGPT-powered cheating) are in existential danger. There is an area close to mathematics, however, which devises solutions in which problems solve themselves even through self-serving human behavior: game theory.
Po-Shen Loh is a math professor, researcher, and educator who transitioned to devise new solutions for large-scale real-world problems. He will talk about his experience going between the ivory tower of academia and the practicality of the real world, where he ultimately innovated fundamentally new approaches to pandemic control (novid.org) and scalable advanced live math education (live.poshenloh.com).
He will also discuss educational strategies that build relevant skills to survive this new era of Generative AI (e.g. ChatGPT). He has been working extensively on that problem, and draws from experience teaching across the entire spectrum, from underprivileged schools to the International Math Olympiad.
Po-Shen Loh is a social entrepreneur and inventor working across the spectrum of mathematics, education, and healthcare, all around the world. He is a math professor at Carnegie Mellon University, and the national coach of the USA International Mathematical Olympiad team. He holds math degrees from Caltech and Cambridge, and a PhD from Princeton. As an academic, Po-Shen has earned distinctions ranging from an International Mathematical Olympiad silver medal to the United States Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers. He was the coach of Carnegie Mellon University’s math team when it achieved its first-ever #1 rank among all North American universities, and the coach of the USA Math Olympiad team when it achieved its first-ever back-to-back #1-rank victories in 2015 and 2016, and then again in 2018 and 2019. His research and educational outreach takes him to cities across the world, reaching over 10,000 people each year through public lectures and events, and he has featured in or co-created videos totaling over 19 million RUclips views.
It‘s the guy from the „the most beautiful equation in math“ video! incredible
Po-Shen Loh articulating what every teacher that ever inspired you does and finding such a marvellous way to spread that capability. STEM Subjects not just Math, fantastic. ❤
Very much Impressed. Prof Simons charity is producing some real community benefits. Thank you.
Absolutely wonderful talk, and a practical leading edge, for a new economy, educational approach. Many thanks for sharing.
Class size is a major factor in whether children make friends outside their age group. The smaller a school is the more likely that kids will have friends two years younger or two years older than themselves.
Educator and mathematician Po-Shen Loh talks about the impacts of automation on education and the economy. Ultimately, to avoid becoming redundant, we have to learn what it means to be human, and teach the next generation to be more empathetic, creative and passionate.
Po-Shen Loh opened my eyes to a new way of doing math and keeping us employed. It's a wonderful thing we should implement and not just talk about. AI needs to serve us not replace us.
I worked with a EE who also had a degree in Theatre. He was the coolest EE I have ever met, and you always wanted to be around him.
This man is great, but I'll opt for the GPT education. I've learned more in the last 6 months than in the 5 years preceding them. I can now write my original ideas in a far more competent way using GPT as a fact-checker, proofreader, editor or ghostwriter. I also ask it to ask me questions on what I wrote so that I have feedback. The progress I make through this process is simply unbelievable.
By far one of the most engaging and hopeful talks I have ever seen.
What a great teacher and presenter. Loved this talk.
When I first read the video title i almost skipped it. It’s click-bait-y. I’m glad I watched it to the end. Very informative.
I agreed that you know something well if you are able to teach. Communication skills with technical skills are perfect match that will propel one to the next level.
Talk proper starts at
what a heartwarming and inspiring talk! this is wonderful and great gift to the field of education!
"Tanquam ex ungue leonem" (sp?): As the lion is know by its claw. Made in reference to Newton solving a very perplexing problem in his time..
thanks for the session, learned a lot, have lots of questions..
Honestly I think Po-Shen Loh is the Richard Feynman of this generation
I learned so much from this!
There seems to be a battle between people that think work is something to be avoided and people that think working, and feeling needed is part of being human and should not be avoided.
