I mean, something like chatGPT (that will refuse to invent things) is perfect for student companion. It's endlessly patient and willing to explain every word you don't understand. No teacher can do that to this degree. If i were a teacher i d want to offload work to it.

It will also make stuff up if it doesn't know the answer. A tutor who did that would get fired.
It was endlessly patient until they introduced rate limiting. :)
When I was playing with extracting stories from ChatGPT my feeling was always that it writes like an 8th grade honors student.
so, it can also be their (annoying) imaginary friend
