Coursera Inc. (COUR): ChatGPT Integration Marks New Era

Coursera Inc. (NYSE:COUR) is one of the companies that are pertinent to the discussion about The Future of Artificial Intelligence: 10 Predictions for 10 Industries.

In late August this year, Bill Ackman, the billionaire chief of Pershing Square, took to social networking platform X to announce that a new private school would be opening in New York City in September. Ackman called the new school, Alpha, the first truly breakthrough innovation in K-12 education that he had seen since the Kipp Academy. Ackman highlighted that 200 years ago, K-12 education was a teacher and a blackboard in front of 25-30 kids. Today, per Ackman, the only thing that had changed was that the blackboard may be a whiteboard. Meanwhile, the world was in the midst of an AI revolution, he noted.

Ackman backed the AI embrace by Alpha, where a typical school day consisted of two hours of dedicated AI personal tutoring customized for a child’s academic program, four hours of leadership and life skills, and no homework. However, parents had access to daily real time data on how the child was doing.

In light of this AI-led disruption, investors might consider paying more attention to Coursera Inc. (NYSE:COUR), a firm that operates an online educational content platform that connects learners, educators, organizations, and institutions. On October 7, the company announced integration with ChatGPT. Per the firm, this partnership marked the first time an online learning platform had been directly embedded in ChatGPT — making educational content more accessible to hundreds of millions of learners worldwide. Every week, more than 800 million people use ChatGPT, with one of the most common use cases being learning.
