It used to be called the blinking twelve problem, because many adults were unable or unwilling to learn how to set the clock on a VCR, resulting in it being stuck at the start up state of flashing 12:00.

Even if running local AI would be as simple as downloading an app, a bunch would still have issues.

    Yeah, it's a colossal problem. One of the cool things about the internet is it allows for the decoupling of education from government or corporate power, at least as far as the internet itself can be decoupled from government or corporate power (an ongoing and also colossal problem), but it requires that people who need education 1) have physical access to education, 2) can locate the educational resources that they need, in the order they need them, and 3) are able and willing to seek out and take advantage of the resources available to them.

    I'm not even sure how to start, it's such a massive undertaking. But I think the more we can make education freely available and accessible on the internet, the better off the earth will be.
