The IT Center and the Center for Teaching and Learning Services provide RWTH employees with free access to ChatGPT and comparable AI systems in the form of RWTHgpt.
The RWTHgpt service is based on the generative AI technologies of the company OpenAI and includes multiple language models and AI tools from which users can choose.
The systems can be accessed via a web interface developed at RWTH Aachen University, which enables data protection-compliant use of the OpenAI systems.

You can find an overview of all the functions made available to date as well as notes and restrictions here: RWTHgpt functions
RWTHgpt is continuously being developed. Possible bugs will be fixed and new functions and additional AI models are being added.
