OpenAI has launched a new 'Study Mode' for ChatGPT, aiming to enhance learning beyond simply providing answers. This feature employs a series of system prompts designed to guide users through material using a 'Socratic dialogue' approach. Instead of directly giving solutions, ChatGPT poses questions and encourages critical thinking, fostering deeper understanding and knowledge retention. The goal is to make ChatGPT a more effective learning tool, promoting active engagement with the subject matter rather than passive information consumption.
