OpenAI Offers Malta Free ChatGPT Plus for AI Literacy Grads
Complete an AI literacy course at the University of Malta, get a free year of ChatGPT Plus. That's the deal.
OpenAI is teaming up with Malta's national AI for All initiative on a straightforward trade: finish an AI literacy course, score a free year of ChatGPT Plus.
The program routes citizens through a course developed by the University of Malta. Once they complete it, they unlock twelve months of OpenAI's premium chatbot tier — no charge.
It's a notable move for a small EU nation positioning itself as an AI-forward state. Malta has previously made headlines for its crypto-friendly regulatory framework, and this partnership signals a similar appetite for emerging tech adoption at the national level.
For OpenAI, it's a user acquisition play wrapped in an education initiative. Getting an entire country's engaged learners onto ChatGPT Plus creates a pipeline of power users who've been trained to actually use the product effectively.
