The value of people will be more focused on using creativity and imagination to solve various problems in the world. The main direction of education will no longer be teaching knowledge. Knowledge will be provided by AI on demand anytime, anywhere, and in real time. More importantly, Teach students to think, innovate, what to learn, how to learn, how to define problem boundaries, how to define required resource boundaries, how to manage silicon-based civilization, how to communicate and collaborate, etc..
