OpenAI Teaches Grandparents How to Chat

In an effort to expand user demographics beyond tech enthusiasts and teenagers seeking essay shortcuts, OpenAI is partnering with AARP to launch free, hands-on ChatGPT workshops. The initiative aims to introduce one thousand older adults across ten U.S. cities to practical AI skills, ensuring they understand how to use the technology safely in their daily routines.

• OpenAI is clearly hunting for fresh demographics now that tech bros have maxed out their prompt limits.
• Teaching older adults how to prompt safely is noble, provided nobody mistakes the chatbot for a licensed financial advisor.
• This localized PR tour costs OpenAI very little while generating heartwarming headlines about bridging the digital divide.

Why should I care? You shouldn't
Unless you are an AARP member looking for a free workshop, this is pure PR fluff designed to warm corporate hearts.
