No Priors Ep. 133 | With Alpha School Principal Joe Liemandt

Joe Liemandt, founder of Trilogy and principal of Alpha School, presents a radical vision for K-12 education powered by AI. He advocates for a "Time Back" model where students complete their core academics in just two hours a day using AI tutors, freeing the rest of their time for passion-driven workshops that build real-world life skills.
