Davos 2023: AI chatbot to 'change education forever within six months'

Teachers and students will discover by June that learning "will never be the same again" as people are increasingly using the artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT, according to the chief executive of one of the world's largest providers of online education. ChatGPT is able to process large amounts of text and shares that information such as summarising it or explaining it "in a conversational way. The dialogue format makes it possible … to answer follow-up questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises and reject inappropriate requests", according to its creators, OpenAI. If asked, it can create essays, poems and coding. Source material can be provided by a user or the technology uses available resources from the internet.
