The dream is clearly asking a student what they’re interested in, getting them to self direct on a project with guidance and deliver something you can evaluate. I would hazard that AI helps rather than hinders this.
hot take: if all models stopped improving today, we could get there with today's technology.
No, you couldn't whip out a foundational model out of the box to do this, but we could likely engineer our way to guardrails to support this without substantial hallucinations (i.e. fewer than the 95th percentile of human teachers.)
Also in no way would this replace everything teachers do. I'm talking purely academic curiosity.
