Did u read the abstract? They’re presenting a framework to use LLMs as educators in higher education. It’s quite cool really.
The idea is to create a professor personalised for every student and their learning patterns. Imagine hiring a professor to personally teach you something. The professor talks to you, creates little tests specifically for what they think are your weaknesses are in the subject matter and so on.
This is very good for us as human researchers will now be able to dedicate (assuming this tech works) 100% of their time to research instead of teaching the same subject matter again and again every single year, coming up with tests, marking tests, grading their students’ papers and so on.
If this tech is successful, then education costs would nosedive like crazy, which would be good for all.

It adapts to your mistakes and such, often offers “personalised practice” based on your weak spots, and gives gameficated language learning experience
