IIM Bangalore Uses Student-Built Chatbots for Generative AI Midterm ExamPreviousNext

IIM Bangalore conducted a midterm exam for its MBA students in a Generative AI course where students built and trained their own chatbots to answer exam questions. Developed by Prof Subho Majumdar, the secure platform restricted chatbot knowledge to course materials and allowed students to optimize prompts and memory for better responses. This practical assessment replaced traditional exams, emphasizing both AI understanding and application, while ensuring academic integrity through controlled AI use.
