An academic named Matt Huculak from the University of Victoria used ChatGPT to write a recommendation letter for a student. Soon after this, the student received a scholarship from the University of Cambridge, the academic told Insider.
“Honestly, the ChatGPT generated letter was among some of the best letters I’ve read,” Huculak told the publication and added, “It was concise, it used concrete examples, it spoke to the candidate’s ability to collaborate with others.”

Huculak also told The Atlantic that the letter of recommendation written from ChatGPT’s help was the most ‘human and heartfelt letter’ that he has written in a long time.
Only today, OpenAI expressed its plans to introduce a new subscription tier for ChatGPT, its viral AI-powered chatbot, tailored to the needs of enterprise customers.
Called ChatGPT Business, OpenAI describes the forthcoming offering as “for professionals who need more control over their data as well as enterprises seeking to manage their end users.”

“ChatGPT Business will follow our API’s data usage policies, which means that end users’ data won’t be used to train our models by default,” OpenAI wrote in a blog post published today. “We plan to make ChatGPT Business available in the coming months.”
This is not the first time that we are hearing ChatGPT being used in an educational setting. While earlier, the AI chatbot was being banned in schools and universities, looks like things are changing now.
A student recently took to Reddit and shared his experience of using ChatGPTas a tutor to prepare for his semester examinations. He scored a stunning 94 percent when he abided by the AI chatbot’s instructions.
This was achieved by getting a transcript of all his lectures, pasting it to ChatGPT, and asking the chatbot to analyse them. However, ChatGPT has a limit to the information that can be posted at a time and the transcripts proved to be too long for the chatbot to analyse. In order to solve this problem, the student used a paraphrasing tool first to get a summary of the transcript. Then, this summary was pasted to ChatGPT and the chatbot analysed the information, providing necessary information to the student.
“I got a 94 on the exam, despite me studying only for three days without watching a single lecture” the Reddit post read. The student added, “This was not a hard course, but it was very extensive, lots of reading and understanding that needed to be applied. Chat gpt excelled in this because the course text was already heavily analysed, and it specialises in understanding text.”
