OpenAI wants ChatGPT in classrooms

OpenAI, whose generative AI products initially raised fears of widespread cheating on homework, is now exploring how it can get its popular ChatGPT chatbot into classrooms, according to a senior executive.

OpenAI's chief operating officer, Brad Lightcap, said at a conference in San Francisco that the company will form a team to explore educational applications of a technology that has threatened to upend industries, stoked new legislation and become a popular learning tool.

“Most teachers are trying to figure out ways to incorporate (ChatGPT) into the curriculum and into the way they teach,” Lightcap said at the INSEAD Americas Conference last week. “We at OpenAI are trying to help them think through the problem and we probably next year will establish a team with the sole intent of doing that.”

Backed by billions of dollars from Microsoft (MSFT.O), OpenAI kicked off the generative AI craze last November by releasing its ChatGPT chatbot, which became one of the world's fastest-growing applications. Trained on reams of data, generative AI can create brand-new humanlike content, helping users spin up term papers, complete science homework and even write entire novels. After ChatGPT's launch, regulators scrambled to catch up: the European Union revised its AI Act and the U.S. kicked off AI regulation efforts.

The Importance of reading

The significance of reading is due to a number of factors, which range from mere educational interest to the health benefits and advantages for our societies. Reading brings your brain to work in various areas. First of all, you need to be able to process words that you read. On top of that, you're able to use your skills in the areas of analyticism, memory stimulation, as well as enhance your imagination by reading words off a page. Books could be a way of escaping and some kind of adventure. Reading will enable you to consider things in new ways, learning about cultures, events and people that you may not even have had the chance to know before. You might also take a more active role in shaping or increasing your own sense of identity by making better use of thought techniques. For example, you may be reading a mystery novel and learning that you're good at detective work as well as looking for clues. 👀 Reading opens up doors to new worlds, provides entertainm...

Exploitation of Wildlife: A Threat to Biodiversity and Ecosystems

The exploitation of wildlife, driven by various human activities, poses a significant threat to the delicate balance of our planet's ecosystems and the survival of numerous species. In this brief article, we will delve into the issue of wildlife exploitation, its underlying causes, and the urgent need to address it for the well-being of our planet. Forms of Wildlife Exploitation Wildlife exploitation takes various forms, including: Poaching: The illegal hunting of wildlife for their body parts, such as ivory, rhino horn, or exotic furs, remains a grave concern. Poaching decimates populations and pushes species closer to extinction. Bushmeat Trade: The consumption of wild animals for food, often in unsustainable quantities, threatens not only the targeted species but also the ecosystems they inhabit. Exotic Pet Trade: The global demand for exotic pets fuels the capture and trade of wild animals, often resulting in poor living conditions and the endangerment of species. Traditional ...

The Power of Pets

Nothing compares to the joy of coming home to a loyal companion. The unconditional love of a pet can do more than keep you company. Pets may also decrease stress, improve heart health, and even help children with their emotional and social skills. An estimated 68% of U.S. households have a pet. But who benefits from an animal? And which type of pet brings health benefits? Over the past 10 years, NIH has partnered with the Mars Corporation’s WALTHAM Centre for Pet Nutrition to answer questions like these by funding research studies. Scientists are looking at what the potential physical and mental health benefits are for different animals—from fish to guinea pigs to dogs and cats. Research on human-animal interactions is still relatively new. Some studies have shown positive health effects, but the results have been mixed. Interacting with animals has been shown to decrease levels of cortisol (a stress-related hormone) and lower blood pressure. Other studies have found that animals...
