Oboe is the world’s first generalized AI-powered learning platform. Oboe lets anyone instantly create educational courses to learn about any topic in a more personalized, efficient, and fun way than ever before.

@nirzicherman I tried creating a course to see how Oboe works. I simply entered a title and the platform generated a full course with content for me. However, it was not the content I would include myself. I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but is it possible to edit the generated structure or define the main idea and materials before generation? I would appreciate support for structuring, content suggestions, and improvements, but I wouldn't want the tool to completely replace my input. Also, is there currently (or planned) support for creating courses in languages other than English?

@anastasiiazhur Thanks for trying it out! Currently we don't allow editing, but it's absolutely on the roadmap. For all the things you mentioned: specific content, improvements, structuring. Also depth and range of coverage on the topic. It's a really great idea and something we hope to build soon.
With regards to other languages, we do hope to support them soon. Given our limited resources, we just haven't had a chance to do this yet.
Thanks for the feedback and for your question!
Congratulations on the launch! That's super interesting! As a life-long learner, I'll definitely try it. I just wonder, how to be sure that this knowledge is free from hallucinations/disinformation/wrong takeaways?

@anastasiia_kiosieva That's a great question. We've invested heavily in building systems that fact check, via agents that audit and correct the output of other agents. This is an area we're going to have to keep investing it for sure. I'm optimistic we can get it to be very good (and hopefully even more reliable than so much of the disinformation that perpetuates in other corners of the internet where people learn today).
@nirzicherman Sounds great! Thanks for your reply!

Most platforms feel like they’re just trying to grab attention, not actually teach anything. What’s been the most surprising course someone has created so far?

@abod_rehman Based on our early analysis of what people are typing in, it really seems like they're genuinely trying to learn and explore curiosities. I saw one prompt about Brazilian tax law. Another on cow farming.
One of my favorites is: someone prompted Oboe with "hi", and Oboe responded by building a course on how to make a good first impression.

Congrats on the launch! Such a cool approach to education, and the design looks really sharp.

@julien_rioux Thank you, Julien!

Really enjoy the process of creating new lines of inquiry on Oboe — which then branch into additional subjects or topics to explore.
Also interested in what lessons you're bringing from building @Anchor to Oboe...?
