ChatGPT is one of the popular tools with students, and OpenAI is working with ed-tech startups in India and the US to enable development of education products on top of ChatGPT through its APIs, a top executive said.
AI is becoming a core infrastructure like the internet, reshaping how we team and run operations, and for students, it serves as a personal tutor. This can close the gap between those who have access to learning resources and those who have been historically left behind, which is relevant to markets such as India, Leah Belsky, vice president-education, OpenAI said while speaking to select Indian media.
On Tuesday, OpenAI launched a study mode. The company claims its "a learning companion" that guides students with the process instead of giving quick answers, as it is one of the major use cases for ChatGPT emerging from the student community, said a top executive.
OpenAI worked with education experts and institutions for developing this model. With study mode, OpenAI could be competing with ed-tech startups in the country.
Belsky said that the study mode was tested on to IIT and other competitive exams across India to assess the performance, which was the key objective. The company is also doubling down on partnerships and collaborations with the education ecosystem in India.
The launch comes after OpenAI’s interaction with the students and the academic community in the country over a few weeks, where the team learnt that students wanted a tutor that would guide them.
Belsky said that the feature will be available in 11 Indian languages with multimodal support and is tested by Indian students across a range of scenarios from learning to exam preparation. “Early testing shows strong performance, particularly on IIT level questions.” Belsky said.
