OpenAI's artificial intelligence chatbot has passed the final exam of an MBA programme designed for Pennsylvania's Wharton School, according to a new study. Professor Christian Terwiesch, who authored the study, noted that educators should be concerned that their students might be cheating on homework assignments and final exams using such AI chatbots. The yet-to-be peer-reviewed research found AI chatbot GPT-3 did an "amazing job at basic operations management and process analysis questions including those that are based on case studies". GPT-3 – an older version of the ChatGPT bot that has gained prominence – scored somewhere between a B- and B on the exam, according to Dr Terwiesch. The study noted that the AI displayed a "remarkable ability to automate some of the skills of highly compensated knowledge workers in general and specifically the knowledge workers in the jobs held by MBA graduates including analysts, managers and consultants".

Taiwan is looking to become a frontrunner in the development of artificial intelligence, the next digital frontier. Many however worry that AI-powered technology will soon take over jobs done by humans. An example is a grocery store in Taipei, which doesn't need people to run it.
