OpenAI contacted me to say “Study Mode is still live and accessible via /study and /learn shortcuts” so that’s good, although the official study mode page doesn’t mention that.
(I don’t think slash commands are a natural thing for the vast majority of people).

The silent removal of Study Mode from ChatGPT is a big mistake (both Claude and Gemini still have theirs)
We have enough evidence that using AI in assistant mode to study can hurt learning because it just gives you answers, making students think they learned when they have not. You can prompt the model to be a very good tutor, but most people don't know to do that. Study mode was an easy option that parents and teachers could suggest to mitigate negative effects, even if it wasn't perfect.
OpenAI still has a page about it, and the link activates study mode but otherwise there seems to be no way to select it from a menu for most accounts. openai.com/index/chatgpt-stu…
