For educational institutions, the learning mode provides a middle path that avoids completely prohibiting AI tools while also preventing unrestricted AI intervention in teaching. By directly integrating educational principles into the AI interface, OpenAI has created a tool that addresses educators' concerns about learning integrity while helping students obtain AI tutoring.
