Virtual Teaching Assistant created by Georgia Tech researcher Ashok Goel in 2016, now with new version that runs on ChatGPT. Answers students’ questions based on course material. |
|
"We address the hallucination issue by citing the documents from which information is obtained and verifying grounding using textual entailment. To prevent Jill Watson from answering unsafe questions or generating unsafe responses, we employ a classifier for question relevance, toxic text filters, and prompts that promote politeness in response generation. Further, Jill Watson is designed to answer questions based on multiple large documents which makes it well-suited for intelligent textbooks." - paper
