What happened

A protest against the use of artificial intelligence in learning took place at Chico State University in California, USA. One of the protesters’ main accusations was written directly on a sign: “OpenAI is a scam.”

The source does not say how many people took part, what their specific demands were, or how the university responded, so we do not include these details.

Why it matters

History shows that many educational institutions are still debating what role AI should play in education. Some see it as a useful learning assistant, while others worry that it gets in the way of thinking, writing, and checking knowledge independently.

For ordinary people, this issue is not limited to students in the US. Similar discussions are already reaching schools and universities in other countries, including Ukraine.
