OpenAI launches Study Mode in ChatGPT: What is it, how it works, and more
OpenAI rolled out Study Mode in ChatGPT, a new feature designed to help students develop critical thinking skills rather than simply spoon-feeding them answers. Available to logged-in users across Free, Plus, Pro, and Team plans, the feature transforms the AI chatbot into an interactive tutor that guides students through problems step-by-step instead of delivering instant solutions.
Study Mode represents OpenAI’s response to widespread concerns about AI’s impact on education. When enabled, ChatGPT asks probing questions to assess skill levels, breaks down complex concepts into digestible sections, and provides personalised feedback based on previous conversations.
