Malta to offer 1-year ChatGPT Plus subscription for free
What's the story
Malta is set to become the first country in the world to provide its residents with a free year-long subscription of ChatGPT Plus. The initiative, announced by US-based artificial intelligence company OpenAI, comes after Maltese residents complete a free course on how to use AI. The program will kick off this month and will be gradually expanded as more people complete the training.
