Integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the educational technology sector is revolutionizing the learning and teaching landscape. As AI continues to advance, its application within education is not just enhancing educational experiences but is fundamentally transforming the industry. 
From personalized learning paths to intelligent tutoring systems, AI in education unlocks unprecedented opportunities for students and educators alike, setting the stage for a future where education is more accessible, efficient, and tailored to individual needs.
In our earlier podcast session 126, we talked to the founders of AI Teacher about how they are using Generative AI for secondary school teachers. 
In today's enlightening episode, we had the privilege of interviewing the founder of Plabook, a revolutionary educational tool designed to transform how we approach oral reading fluency and comprehension in students.
Plabook stands out by leveraging advanced speech recognition technology to listen to students as they read, providing instant, personalized feedback and smart recommendations.
