Indian edtech startup Scaler announced the introduction of its GPT-4 powered AI teaching assistant for learners. According to the startup, around 6000 learners from in the ‘Scaler Academy programme’, have been provided access to the AI Teaching Assistant, enabling round-the-clock query resolution.

By integrating GPT-4 functionalities into the Scaler Academy programme, the edtech startup is aiming to reduce the doubt resolution turnaround time of the learners, enhancing their learning outcomes. The startup observed that learners who accessed the GPT-4-powered AI teaching assistant were 10% to 20% less likely to raise help externally and could solve problems by themselves.

The new tool aims to tackle three key pain points with this solution: comprehending problems, identifying optimal approaches for problem-solving, and code debugging. This ensures learners receive immediate assistance 24/7.

“Previously, our Scaler learners relied solely on teaching assistants who were available for 15 hours a day to address their doubts. However, with the launch of our GPT-4 powered AI teaching assistant and the THR feature, learners can now have their doubts and queries addressed instantly,” Abhimanyu Saxena, co-founder of Scaler & InterviewBit, said.
