Matt sits down with entrepreneur and educator Doan Winkel to dig into why \"helpful AI\" might be the worst thing to happen to learning and what to do instead. In this episode: The philosophy behind AI Friction Labs and why deliberately frustrating students might be the most effective teaching tool yet Why Doan thinks the \"easy button\" problem isn't really an AI problem The ungrading experiment that revealed something startling: students aren't cheating at teachers. Teachers never even cross their minds. How one small prompt change turned a skeptical lawyer into an AI evangelist overnight Why the most resistant person in the room might be exactly who you need on your AI committee The inertia problem: education hasn't fundamentally changed in decades. Will AI finally be the thing that breaks it?
