0.52: Founder Studio update
2:00 Shrinking attention spans & implications for learning
14:29 K12 EdTech decline & the reset opportunity
22:10 Outro
Attention spans are down to 47 seconds (!) and users decide whether to keep scrolling in 1.8. What does that mean for founders building in learning, where retention, repetition and a bit of discomfort are part of the product?
David and Rhys unpack agentic attention, the craving for "real over perfect" in an age of AI slop, and the human premium emerging across European edtech and the future of work. They also push back on the "K-12 edtech boom is over" narrative: the reset has cleared the noise, unit economics have shifted, and AI literacy is the next wave.
