In the scenarios here we have here an example of someone taking one element - in this case, AI - and projecting a future based on that element. In this case, one thing we get is 'Interface University', the idea for a new kind of higher education institution where students and AIs work together. "Learning would become a noisy affair," writes David Staley, "with humans and artificial intelligence engaged in continual conversations." But everything else, it seems, would be the same: majoring in individual disciplines, graded project-based assignments, and of course, AI-focused curricula. Posh! With AI-supported learning on demand, people wouldn't need to attend university at all. Learning would happen very quietly, with conversations happening in an internal monologue. And they wouldn't be conversations; the AI will stimulate all senses to provide a form of internal virtual (or augmented, depending) reality to provide background, play out scenarios, draw implications, and more.
