Troubled-edtech giant Byju's doesn't want to lose the make its space in the growing AI space. The startup, which recently faced a massive valuation cut, has announced the launch of Byju's WIZ, a suite of three cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) transformer models – BADRI, MathGPT, and TeacherGPT.
According to the company's statement, The new suite is poised to reshape learning, providing students with personalized and effective learning experiences.
Byju's said its generative AI suite can accurately predict (in 90% of cases) a student's knowledge state and identify misconceptions, learning gaps, or ‘silly’ mistakes. Its platform can be integrated across BYJU'S learning platforms to make the platform hyper-personalised and student-centric.
The AI uses BYJU’S data based on the billions of daily interactions and allows the AI suite to undergo extensive training and amplification, enabling it to bring unparalleled delight to students, teachers, and parents alike.
Dev Roy, Chief Innovation and Learning Officer at BYJU’S, said on the launch of this AI suite: “Innovation is at the heart of BYJU’s approach to learning and teaching. We are thrilled to introduce these innovative models, which embody our commitment to becoming an AI-powered student-centric education company. We believe BYJU’SWIZ will usher in a new era of personalized learning, taking a significant leap forward in the way we educate our future generations. Its launch is a definitive event in our constant endeavor to teach students not just ‘what to learn’ but also ‘how to learn’.”
Byju's Generative AI:
BYJU’S Attentive DateVec Rasch Implementation (BADRI) | ● An advanced predictive AI model developed in-house, BADRI leverages billions of daily student interactions and uses advanced “transformer” technology similar to language learning models (LLMs) like ChatGPT
● It implements personalized ‘forgetting curves’ to pinpoint each student’s strengths and weaknesses, providing tailored questions and learning videos for areas of improvement. ● It is one of the most accurate knowledge-tracing models in the field of education. |
MathGPT | ● MathGPT employs advanced machine learning algorithms to provide highly accurate solutions for complex math challenges, including trigonometric proofs, which is a first in the industry.
● Trained solely on mathematical problem-solving, it addresses the limitations of generalized language learning models that lack the depth required for specific sectors like education |
TeacherGPT | ● Built as an AI-driven assistant, TeacherGPT offers personalized guidance to students as well as grade student responses
● With a unique ‘point teach and bottom-out’ approach, it ensures that students are gently guided towards the correct answer, promoting independent problem-solving skills. |
Byju's said it aims to make learning more engaging, effective, and enjoyable for students worldwide while also optimizing internal systems such as teacher audits to make offerings such as LIVE classes better.
