#chegg — Public Fediverse posts

After 18 years #edu tech and online #tutor service #Chegg, that started out simply renting #textbooks has now had to lay off nearly half its staff and bounced its CEO after the #ArtificialIntelligence revolution began winnowing away subscribers and hundreds of millions of dollars in Israeli based corp's value.

"Chegg lost 99% of its
value—over $14.5B—
after Al tools like
#ChatGPT undercut its
$14.95/month model,
forcing layoffs of 388
employees (45% of staff)"

And Chegg is getting a ton of visibility with some of those queries, ranking well in the AIO, in the Questions & Answers SERP feature, AND in the 10-blue links (all at the same time). But, if the AIO answers the question, they are in a tough spot. See an example query below.

More: "Since ChatGPT’s launch, Chegg has lost more than half a million subscribers who pay up to $19.95 a month for prewritten answers to textbook questions and on-demand help from experts. Its stock is down 99% from early 2021, erasing some $14.5 billion of market value. Bond traders have doubts the company will continue bringing in enough cash to pay its debts."

I found that one of my old assignments has been uploaded to #Chegg a website that seems to me to be about paying people to do your assignments. Apart from their weird and coopting "Honor shield" faculty partnership program, I am wondering if there is any way to I dunno, claim my copyright from them?

"Chegg shares drop more than 40% after company says ChatGPT is killing its business"

As a #writer, I’ve worked with Pearson, just recently. #ChatGPT is making an already difficult situation for #writers harder…

ChatGPT just cut #Chegg in half.

On Monday’s earnings call, CEO mentioned that the #chatbot is affecting subscriber growth, causing #stocks to plummet nearly 50%.

The #AI-fueled anxiety rippled through the #education sector, with Pearson and #duolingo shares also dropping 15% and 10%, respectively.👀
