"ChatGPT Just Passed an MBA-Level Exam at Wharton"

ChatGPT has made some poor attempts to be a journalist and a therapist, but could it be a good student?  Professor Christian Terwiesch from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania believes it can.  After Terwiesch proctored a final exam from a Master of Business Administration course for the chatbot, he found that ChatGPT passed.  Terswiesch noted that not only did ChatGPT pass, it scored a B- to a B. Terswiesch described three main trends in ChatGPT's performance on the exam.  First, he claims that ChatGPT performed well on open-ended questions based on case studies.  Second, he claims that the AI struggled with some 6th-grade arithmetic.  For example, some answers were incorrect by magnitudes of ten.  Finally, the researcher stated that the chatbot couldn't handle "process analysis" questions which included "process flows with multiple products and problems with stochastic effects such as demand variability." ChatGPT was able to improve its results when provided with hints from humans, the same way a student might receive hints from their professor when asking a question during an exam.  Based on his work, Terwiesch argues that ChatGPT could be an invaluable tool for education, but "professors and administrators need to be mindful of what the AI can and cannot do before baking it into a curriculum."
