Welcome to another exciting episode of VR in Education! In today's solo episode, we delve into the innovative world of AI avatars and their potential in the educational landscape. Our host shares his firsthand experience beta testing Victory XR's new AI avatar platform and compares it to other non-avatar AI tools.

First, we explore the capabilities of non-avatar AI platforms like School AI and AI Tutor Pro, highlighting their strengths and limitations. These platforms offer various options for creating engaging learning experiences and supporting students, but they lack the immersive quality of AI avatars.
