Briefly

Satya Nitta envisioned creating an AI-driven tutoring system after Watson's success, but concluded that one-on-one tutoring is 'a terrible use of AI.'

The failed tutoring moonshot with Watson provides valuable lessons as new AI programs like ChatGPT enter the field with high expectations.
