Earlier this month, Anthropic announced a major new AI initiative targeting the education sector. The Claude for Education program includes an AI Learning Mode for students as well as AI tools that the entire faculty can use. Anthropic also announced partnerships with a few educational institutions.
Unsurprisingly, OpenAI didn't wait long to respond with its own initiative, deciding to make ChatGPT Plus available to students for free for the next two months. Although OpenAI's initiative is much more limited than Anthropic's, it made a premium version of ChatGPT available to more students who qualify for AI-for-school deals.
It's now Google's turn to try to woo students with AI products, and it's an offer students can't and should not refuse, even if they don't use Gemini as their primary AI companion.
Google is making Gemini Advanced available for free to students, and that includes access to the newly released Gemini 2.5 Pro model and 2TB of storage. The offer is much better than OpenAI's as it extends through Spring 2026 as long as you subscribe by the end of June.
