ChatGPT removes another barrier to human-AI interaction

OpenAI significantly updated ChatGPT-3.5, eliminating the need for users to register to use the program. The goal of this modification, which was announced on April 1, is to make AI easier for everyone to experience. It’s important to remember that individuals who choose not to register for accounts will not be able to store their previous conversations.

The United States will be the first nation to gradually receive the feature. While the general public applauded the claimed democratization of AI, OpenAI’s capacity to stop data scrapers from “abusing” the free ChatGPT-3.5 API questioned by Simon Willison, co-creator of the Python-based web framework Django.

AI developers view the elimination of ChatGPT’s sign-up requirement as a step towards creating more advanced large language models. Many others, though, voice concerns over the related use cases. According to OpenAI, ChatGPT has a weekly active user base of over 100 million individuals worldwide.

With relative anonymity now accessible to more people using ChatGPT, it is expecting that the number of individuals previously hesitant to provide personal information to a company like OpenAI will increase.

It’s crucial to remember that, despite not being the most powerful “free” generative AI tool available right now, BuzzFeed data scientist Max Woolf thinks that OpenAI is taking this action to prevent users from adopting rival products.

Advancements in education with AI

The hugging face research indicates that ChatGPT-3.5 has ranked 16th in the world in terms of capability. Better performing free generative AI tools are Google DeepMind’s Gemini Pro and Claude S from Anthropic. A generative AI robot has hired to teach at an Indian school in Kerala.

As part of the Atal Tinkering Lab project by the Indian government agency NITI Aayog, the AI teacher, Iris, created in collaboration with e-learning provider Makerlabs. The humanoid is capable of speaking three languages and giving sophisticated answers. According to the firm, “IRIS empowers educators to deliver engaging and effective lessons like never before by adapting to each student’s needs and preferences.”
