The Royal Museums Greenwich has cautioned that the speed of modern AI chatbots may undermine the very habits that drive scientific discovery. Director Paddy Rodgers argues that instant, polished responses can short‑circuit the curiosity, evidence‑weighing and investigative detours essential to learning.

OpenAI has rolled out a new feature that lets ChatGPT generate interactive visual explanations for a range of scientific and mathematical concepts. Users can adjust variables within the visuals to see real‑time effects, making topics such as the Pythagorean theorem, Coulomb's law, lens equations and Ohm's law more tangible. The tool is available to all ChatGPT users, regardless of subscription level, and is aimed primarily at high‑school and college students. The launch follows the earlier Study Mode, which encouraged learners to reason through problems rather than receive direct answers, signaling OpenAI’s broader push toward educational AI tools.
