Chegg sucks. The only helpful thing I’ve ever gotten from them is their free citation generator.
It seems less like chatGPT was hurting their business and more them claiming chatGPT was hurting their business hurt their business
Edtech generally seems affected across the board. For another data point, looking at Udemy’s stock price over time will show you almost the same pattern.
This is the first I’ve heard of chegg
Chegg study is responsible for 90% of my completed college hw.
Anyone else here like “wtf is a chegg”?
The thing I hated about chegg was it took up every search result. Like I would put in my problem and hope for results that would teach me how to solve it so I could plug my numbers in. Instead it was just paywalled answers
I used to buy or rent my college textbooks from Chegg. Saved thousands of dollars doing that, they seemed like a good company at the time.
First of many more to come
Message received, never say you’re failing
What about traffic to stack overflow, how has chatGPT affected it?
Zoom out, Chegg stock has been tanking since late 2021. By the time ChatGPT launched in November 2022, they were already down 80% from their all-time high.
Chegg now gives ai generated answers. Might as well just use chatgpt.
Even over 10 years ago, Wolframalpha was more helpful than Chegg. (I majored in math)
I was a TA for a college *intro CS course* when ChatGPT came onto the scene. Can anecdotally observe that the ~20% of the class that was cheating with Chegg swapped to cheating with ChatGPT. It was *fast*, too. One term they used Chegg, and the next term they did not.
It was super-hilarious that students didn’t think/realize we had access to the same cheat solutions they did. 🤨
I graduated in July so I can vouch I always used Google Bard (Gemini) or Chat GPT for my economics major
Damn i used chegg all the time. Seems so obvious in hindsight. Coulda bought puts
chegg you sweet thing, thank you for the memories and for helping me pass all my accounting classes
Millennial cheating meets Gen Z cheating
WTF is a Chegg?
Chegg was my *savior* during my time in college. Remember kids: when AI fails, some random Indian guy can do it in 30-45 minutes for only $14.95 a month. It may not be correct, but it will be done.
Would be nice if you marked earnings report dates on here as well.
I continued using it even after chatgpt surge. But they screwed up by providing AI answers and saying it was from a tutor, as soon as I realized, I canceled
A homework helping company (never even heard of that) was publically listed? How tf did they even get to IPO?
I’m sorry, what the fuck is Chegg? That’s a thing you microwave eggs in right? I don’t care enough to Google it.
