Submission + - Stanford AI Class "Beta" for Commercial Launch? (dltj.org)
Lyrdor writes: "The Terms-of-Service for the Stanford Artificial Intelligence class points to how the free class this fall will be used for "developing and evaluating the Online Course prior any commercial release of the Course" by a startup called KnowLabs. Although all of the press accounts so far have pointed to how the course would be a new example of Open Educational Resources from Stanford, the terms of service point to something else going on. On the LinkedIn page of David Stavens, Co-Founder and CEO at Know Labs, the startup is described on his profile as an “angel funded startup to re-envision and revolutionize education using the social web and mobile apps. We launched www.ai-class.com and attracted over 130,000 students in 190+ countries.”"
