Socratic
Sam / February 2023
Socratic has been one of Googles pet projects for a few years now. It is a powerful homework help AI, that supports almost all high school subjects. It has a built-in OCR, so you can scan your homework on your phone from its app, and it will give you an answer and an explanation.
This can easily be used for cheating, but it is designed to be a learning assistant. Use it in moderation, if you don’t learn how to actually do the work you will be stuffed in tests.
I personally tested this, and all questions I scanned returned an error. It was probably an issue with the fact that it is not officially available in Australia and I sideloaded it, or it could have been an issue with the obscure, low-end hardware I tested it on, but it is something to keep in mind.
