He contrasts this with the experiential learning of figures like Marcus Aurelius, which fostered wisdom and adaptability. Twemlow proposes a shift towards transformational education using AI as a mentor to personalise learning. This new model emphasises context-driven knowledge, reflection, and real-world challenges.
