The Two-Minute Mile Problem

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=240920&nl=daily
year ago I argued that as AI algorithms structure more and more
decisions, “last mile” human judgment would become a luxury good

tuned human judgement is needed.

The “last mile” in higher education has always been personalized
attention, and its outcome in the AI era is systematic acceleration.
Students trained to run a two-minute mile will soon be arriving in a
system built for the four-minute mile. The entire U.S. undergraduate
university structure, from the Carnegie Unit to the four-year degree,
