Professor to Advise OpenAI on Improving Well-Being Through ChatGPT

A Georgia Tech interactive computing professor has been selected to advise one of the largest artificial intelligence (AI) companies on making its agents safer and healthier to use.

OpenAI, the developer of the text-to-text generative artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT, announced in October the establishment of an Expert Council on Well-Being and AI.

Professor Munmun De Choudhury is one of eight experts serving on the initial council. OpenAI invited De Choudhury for her expertise on how digital resources affect youth mental health.

OpenAI has raised awareness of improved safety features in recent months after facing criticism for how it protects its users, particularly minors.
