Imagine having as an assignment: "Summarize this article", "Which evergreen notes would you extract", "How would you connect these ideas". Of course will always be artificial, but would lead to great discussions and leveling up.

This could be very hands-on (feedback from expert), socially distributed (scaffolded peer-feedback), asynchronous (worked examples, first try yourself then see example of good and bad note), and using AI/NLP to give you automated feedback.

Yes. But I concluded that the underlying ideas are too nascent, and that I want to develop them much more before spending time spreading them. May run workshops/classes in the meantime, but the point will be to help me understand, not to teach.

To put it another way: I’ll want to work on spreading a given computer-supported thinking idea once I feel it's clearly enabled important work on the margin. Before then, feels too navel-gaze-y / “lifehacker”-y. Better to focus on honing and testing the ideas themselves.

On the one hand I agree - you want teachers teaching from the right context. But on the other hand, this feels very close to the sentiment of „those who can‘t do, teach“. Do I need to take math lessons from a Nobel Prize Winner for the lesson to be legit?
