The university said on Thursday it will get access to ChatGPT Enterprise, a version of the viral chatbot that offers more security, privacy and higher-speed access to OpenAI's technology. The development contrasts the initial alarm in academic circles, when OpenAI's launch of ChatGPT triggered fears that the technology's sophisticated, human-like responses could be misused. "ASU recognizes that augmented and artificial intelligence systems are here to stay, and we are optimistic about their ability to become incredible tools that help students to learn," ASU President Michael Crow said.
