ChatGPT will likely be equipped with online training courses

A member of the OpenAI marketing team announced in an interview that this startup plans Training courses Online with artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT integrate itself. In fact, according to him, teachers will be able to produce customized “GPTs” based on their training courses.

In recent months, OpenAI has focused heavily on the field of education, and in this regard, it has also hired one of the former senior managers of Coursera. He is now responsible for expanding the company’s products in schools. It also released the Edu version of the popular chatbot ChatGPT months ago for academic use and university users.

Access to training courses with ChatGPT

Now, Sia Raj Purohit, a member of OpenAI’s marketing team in education, told TechCrunch in an interview:

“What I hope will happen is that instructors will create custom GPTs for the general public, allowing them to interact with the courses forever.”

Of course, he goes on to say that this program is not one of OpenAI’s current priorities, but it is definitely in its roadmap and development path.

It is worth noting that custom chatbots with the possibility of interaction with the audience of online courses are not a new idea. For example, online education platform Khan Academy has started to offer Khanmigo chatbot, which was developed in collaboration with OpenAI last year. This tool can help students with homework and prepare them for exams. Also, users can use the Khan Academy content library through chatbot.

Of course, Khan Academy’s chatbot was not very successful in the end; Because in performing simple processes like basic mathematics, it showed errors. But it seems that recent models of artificial intelligence no longer have such problems and can be counted on to teach the audience. On the other hand, surveys show that teachers and lecturers are still skeptical of tools based on artificial intelligence and consider the harm caused by them more than the possible benefits; So the adoption of similar services in the near future will probably be met with resistance.
