Lathoa: a kids' math app where the AI is deliberately wrong
Original: Show HN: Lathoa, a math app for kids where the AI is wrong on purpose
A new math app for children called Lathoa is being presented on Hacker News, with the unusual pitch that its AI is wrong on purpose. The idea is that kids must catch and correct the AI's mistakes, turning error-spotting into a learning exercise rather than trusting every answer the system gives.
Why now: The counterintuitive design choice of an intentionally wrong AI tutor is sparking curiosity and debate about how AI should be used in children's education.
