Welp!

#ChatGPT is now in school textbooks in India

@cypnk why are they in english

@licho Almost all higher education texts in tech and science in India are in English

@cypnk okay, although I'm quite convinced it's very uncommon to call a university/college a school.

@licho ? A place of learning being called a "school" is extremely common

@licho @cypnk in Europe, using the word school for anything beyond high school is very rare, but in North America, it's normal.

@chris_e_simpson @licho Also, in most of Asia. The thread I linked to is an Indian subreddit. The subject in question is an Indian textbook

@cypnk @licho Yeah, I wasn't sure about that. I moved from UK to Canada nearly 20 years ago and noticed the difference.

@licho @cypnk IIRC DBMS was taught to us in 8-9th grade. This should be the same. What suggested it is from a college?

@ajinkyapdahale
@cypnk said it's higher education and that's the reason it's in english

@licho @cypnk Ah right I missed that. English is a common medium of teaching here even at grade school level.
