Microsoft, Khan Academy Partner to Make Khanmigo Teaching Tool Free
At its Build conference this week, Microsoft announced it has inked an AI partnership with Khan Academy that will enable the education nonprofit to offer Khanmigo to teachers at no cost.
"As your planning ally and instructional collaborator, Khanmigo leverages Khan Academy content to simplify AI for teachers," Microsoft's education team wrote in a blog post Tuesday. In another layer of the partnership, Khan Academy will help Microsoft train an open source version of the latter's new small language model (SLM), Phi-3, with the goal of creating an AI math tutor for students. Per Tuesday's agreement, Khan Academy will work with Microsoft to explore "how to improve AI-powered math tutoring in a more affordable and scalable manner with an open source fine-tuned version of Phi-3."
