John Hopcroft

John is turning debate into a video game with Cosmos. By using ai to replace judges, moderators, coaches, and other debaters if needed, Cosmos enables students to engage with diverse perspectives and learn how to think more critically, through discourse, at a click of a button.

Almost any parallel you can draw from what chess.com did for Chess, Cosmos will do for debating – from centralising and mainstreaming the extracurricular, to enabling global competition and e-sport entertainment.
