Deep Mind announces an AI “personal trainer” as a new tool for education and personal development

This is another new announcement in the field of AI. Deep Mind (a company that belongs to Alphabet/Google) has announced that it will offer a “Personal Live Coach”.This company has made great strides in the AI field in the past, and I am very clear that this wealth of experience is going to be used by Google/Alphabet to continue to establish itself in this new and flourishing AI market of the future.

On August 24, 2023, DeepMind announced a new tool called “Personal Live Coach”. This tool is designed to provide users with a personalized learning experience tailored to their individual needs.

The Personal Live Coach uses a combination of AI and machine learning to analyze user data, such as their interests, skills, and goals. From this information, the Personal Live Coach creates a personalized learning plan that is continually updated as the user progresses.

According to Deep Mind, the Personal Live Coach offers a variety of resources and tools to help users learn and grow. These resources include:

• Interactive Lessons: The Personal Live Coach offers interactive lessons that are designed to be engaging and challenging. These lessons use a variety of formats, such as videos, games, and quizzes.
• Personalized Coaching: The Personal Live Coach provides users with a personal coach that helps them stay motivated and focused. The personal coach offers personalized feedback and advice to help users achieve their goals.
• Access to a community: The Personal Live Coach offers users the opportunity to connect with other users who share their interests. This community can provide support, encouragement, and motivation.

The Personal Live Coach is available in a variety of languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, and Chinese. The tool is currently in beta but will be available to the general public in 2024.

On the positive side of this information, it must be said that the Personal Live Coach has the potential to revolutionize education and personal development. By providing a personalized learning experience tailored to individual needs, the Personal Live Coach can help people learn and grow more effectively.

But on the negative side, it scares me to think about the level of control and knowledge that they will have over people, their life, their knowledge, their experiences, etc…

As of today, I think that through the Internet and Social Networks they already know EVERYTHING about us, but with the “help” of AI, in addition to knowing about us, I have the feeling that they are going to “dominate” us, guiding us in what we should do.

Because it is very clear that these “guidances” that they give us will take their business interests into account. And in these conditions, I prefer to tell them “don’t help me”. Thank you.
