OpenAI today announced the launch of the Learning Accelerator, an India-first initiative to transform education through AI.
Partnering with IIT Madras, AICTE, MoE, and ARISE schools, OpenAI will provide over 500,000 ChatGPT licenses, AI training programs, and deploy tools like study mode to strengthen learning outcomes. IIT Madras will lead $500,000-funded research on AI’s role in pedagogy and cognition.
OpenAI also appointed Raghav Gupta as Head of Education for India & APAC to expand impact across the region. This initiative builds on OpenAI’s growing India presence, including a Delhi office, ChatGPT Go plan, and enhanced Indic language support.
