Hello everyone! In the 24 hours after its launch, BoilerGPT helped 400 students ask over one thousand questions. Unfortunately, with the overwhelming support and feedback came obvious (and valid) concerns from Purdue Admin. For this reason, BoilerGPT access was suspended from Purdue emails early this morning. At this point in time, no new account can be made, and no Purdue emails can login.

In better news, I am in talks with Purdue administration with the goal of getting the tool back online in a more secure, university endorsed way. These discussions may take weeks or months, but I will keep the community updated. Once again, both of our goals are to help you learn, so I will be sure to advocate on that behalf.

The service will remain live for current accounts (as long as you don't logout) for the foreseeable future, and the code will continue to be improved. Thanks again for everyone who tried out the new learning tool and gave feedback!

Best,

Jack Blair
