@iknowcoachsamuelf: Chegg, once a dominant online education company with a market value of $14.5 billion in 2021, experienced a significant downturn after ChatGPT's launch in late 2022. Students began opting for free AI chatbots for instant answers instead of Chegg's paid subscription service. In May 2023, Chegg was the first publicly traded company to confirm that generative AI was negatively impacting its business, leading to a nearly 50% drop in its stock value in one day. Although Chegg partnered with OpenAI to introduce CheggMate, an AI-powered learning assistant built on GPT-4, the move towards free AI tools persisted. Google's AI Overviews further reduced traffic by providing direct answers in search results. As subscriber numbers and revenue decreased, Chegg announced several rounds of layoffs. Its market value has fallen by approximately 99% from its 2021 peak. Chegg's situation serves as a clear illustration of how generative AI can rapidly disrupt established business models. #Chegg #career #techtok #layoff #TechNews

Didn’t they have issues with passing along information to schools about its users? That’s when I remember people starting to jump like rats off a sinking ship. AI is just the mercy kill at this point.
