  "account": "Western University's Ivey Business School is reviewing the use of an AI tutor in the global macroeconomics for managers class after students raised concerns about the cost and reliability of the chatbot. The AI tool, called Ask GMM, replaced the course textbook and students are now required to pay a $72 fee on top of the existing $750 course materials fee. The fee covers the cost of building and using the AI, but privacy and data security concerns have been raised.",
