The initiative provides campus-wide access to ChatGPT Edu tools, faculty training, responsible-use frameworks, and OpenAI-backed certifications at select institutions. It also extends to Indian ed-tech platforms like PhysicsWallah and upGrad. The move coincides with India's AI Impact Summit and mirrors similar pushes by Google and Microsoft to embed AI skills at scale in one of the world's largest talent markets, where ChatGPT already has 100 million monthly active users. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
