I’d bet dollars to donuts that the internal documents from OpenAI on this marketing push are pretty clear about the real goal here.

So they need to reframe it as part of a wider conversation about GenAI and education, which is where you get the nonsense buzzword courses that don’t attempt to engage with even the most obvious problems.
