HOW ONLINE CLASSES HAS TAKEN A TOLL ON STUDENTS

No matter how hard we try we can never go back to life before the pandemic. Life took a sudden turn when COVID 19 hit the world, all of us were forced to sit at our homes and for a long time, it felt suffocating, and we could not wait for all this to end and get back to our usual routine but with time we got used to living with the pandemic. From work from home to online classes we did everything sitting at home in front of our computer screens. We did not stop working, we just found another alternative and when it comes to education we shifted from offline to online classes. The beginning of this seemed quite interesting but online classes have taken a huge toll on students.

From studying with a group of people to attending classes alone, from uniforms to night suits and desk benches to bedroom not just the mode of education changed but also the concept of school. While in offline classes students not only got to learn together but they shared their food, prayed together, got punished, made jokes, played games, and the never-ending excitement of going back home. With online classes, we did get an alternative to carry on with classes but we could not recreate school education on our computer screen. Online education has taken a huge toll on student’s mental and physical well-being. 

Riya from D.A.V public school says that “Online classes are difficult to understand, there is a lot of classwork and assignments to complete. We hardly get time to enjoy ourselves. I miss my friends and  the games period”

It’s not only the students but also teachers and parents who are not satisfied with the online education system. It’s difficult for teachers to give special attention to weak students. Many students could not afford smartphones, computers and internet facilities and it has been difficult for their parents to arrange for all that. 

Students have to spend hours sitting in front of their computer screens. From education to entertainment, their life has started to revolve around the internet and this has had a huge impact on their physical and mental health. With no social interactions and very less physical activity students have had no life and only studies making them upset. Fortunately, with the pandemic in control at many places, the classes are shifting back to offline mode. Returning to the old school system will take time but it is a good step taken by the government.

The previous owner of the domain turned out to be Dharmesh Shah, founder and CTO of software company HubSpot

OpenAI has bought the domain chat.com. Clicking on it automatically routes you to the ChatGPT website.The AI giant’s CEO Sam Altman announced this on Thursday, November 7, 2024, by simply posting the URL on X (Formerly Twitter) without any description or reasoning.

In his post, he detailed how he had purchased the domain for $15.5 million earlier this year and sold it later to an undisclosed (at that time) buyer.

“Well, in an 8 character tweet (talk about brevity), Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI revealed that they were the buyer,” he wrote. ”If you visit the website now, it goes to ChatGPT.” Shah wrote he was not at liberty at that time to share who the acquirer was as he was “going to leave that to them, when they were ready.”

He then went on to share GPT o1 prompt which reasoned the entire episode. “When he does sell a domain, it’s almost never at a loss,” and “Dharmesh doesn’t like profiting off of people he considers friends,” the prompt read, which could mean he did sell it for more than the $15.5 million he bought it for, since it also says he doesn’t like referring to himself in the third person.

However, its also indicated he got compensated in OpenAI shares since the prompt reads that he “always wanted to own OpenAI shares,” that “he doesn’t need the cash from a domain sale,” and that “he made a non-humble brag earlier this year that he’s now an investor in OpenAI.”

OpenAI has made headlines by acquiring the premium domain chat.com for a staggering sum reportedly exceeding $15 million. The move marks a strategic step by the AI giant, further solidifying its brand presence and making its flagship product, ChatGPT, even more accessible to users. The newly acquired domain now redirects to ChatGPT, streamlining access for millions of users worldwide.

Chat.com is one of the most coveted domain names, thanks to its simplicity and universal appeal. By securing this domain, OpenAI demonstrates its commitment to enhancing user experience and expanding its reach. The investment is seen as a bold move, indicating OpenAI’s confidence in the future of conversational AI.
