Where AI actually helps graduate teaching assistants, and where it doesn't.

Canada's overall AI usage sits at 4.37x its expected level, with Singapore leading at 5.53x.
Adoption is already well ahead of the curve, and the edge goes to whoever turns it into a concrete workflow first.

Questions graduate teaching assistants ask
Is AI worth it for a smaller graduate teaching assistants team?
Often, yes - and counterintuitively the ROI is sometimes faster than for the big end of town because there's less integration overhead. We'll tell you honestly on the scoping call if it isn't.
What tools do you build AI on?
For AI we usually reach for Build lesson plans and resources, Give students instant, cited help, Mark and give feedback faster, Turn one resource into many formats. We're tool-agnostic at heart - we pick what your graduate teaching assistants team team can actually run after we hand the build over, not what looks good on a vendor sticker.
How quickly can we see something running?
Week three for a clickable internal demo against real data. Week six for a slice your team can actually use. We hold ourselves to those numbers because they're what stops a project drifting into "endless discovery".
Is our data kept in New Zealand?
Kiwi Dynamics hosts its own infrastructure in New Zealand, under New Zealand governance. If personal information ever has to go offshore, privacy principle 12 requires comparable protection.
Does scheduling handle public holidays?
It should. New Zealand has 11 national public holidays, including Matariki, plus a regional anniversary day that depends on where your business is.
