EnglishCentral Launches ChatGPT to English Learners at Scale

EnglishCentral Launches ChatGPT to English Learners at Scale

ChatGPT now enables true conversation practice for over 20,000 interactive video lessons on EnglishCentral

EnglishCentral today announced the launch of the first English language learning application using ChatGPT to enable AI-powered conversational English practice on thousands of topics. Millions of EnglishCentral users can now converse with a new AI-powered Chatbot, named MiMi, that engages learners in a manner similar to a human tutor. This release of MiMi incorporates the latest ChatGPT models from Open AI, combines them with EnglishCentral’s IntelliSpeechSM speech recognition engine, and marks a huge leap in learner engagement over previous versions of conversational chatbots.

“We are at a real turning point in the use of AI in English language learning with the release of the latest chat models” commented Alan Schwartz, CEO & Founder of EnglishCentral. “We have been working on chatbots for several years at EnglishCentral, and this release represents a huge leap in capabilities with clear benefits for learners — we see already a 50% increase in engagement of our users when interacting with our ChatBot MiMi using the ChatGPT models.”

The benefits to learners of a chatbot powered by large language models come from their ability to be much more engaging thereby enabling many more turns of a conversation, in terms of context and relevance. The work EnglishCentral has done to build on the ChatGPT base models, includes both the prompt engineering in how to instruct the models, as well as the fine tuning of the generic model to make them specifically suited for speech-enabled language learning, both in terms of engagement and feedback.
