An AI app successfully cracks the UPSC Prelims 2024 in just 7 minutes, achieving a record score of 170/200

AI apps are evolving rapidly. The AI-based app PadhAI scored over 170 out of 200 in the UPSC Civil Services Preliminary Examination 2024, completing the entire paper in just seven minutes. This remarkable achievement places PadhAI among the top 10 scorers nationally, potentially securing the top rank.

Developed by a team of IIT graduates, PadhAI demonstrated its capabilities in a public setting immediately after the UPSC preliminary exam. The event at The Lalit hotel in Delhi was attended by prominent figures from the education sector, the UPSC community, and the media.

The AI app's performance was live-streamed on livestream.padhai.ai and YouTube, allowing viewers to witness this technological accomplishment in real-time.

 PADHAI scores over 170 marks 

PadhAI's score, far exceeding the general qualifying score of under 100, underscores its potential to revolutionize exam preparation and performance.

PadhAI's answers were rigorously compared with those of broad AI models from major tech companies like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google, using answer keys from leading coaching institutes.

Its score was also much higher than the average score in this prestigious exam.

Karttikeya Mangalam, CEO of PadhAI, highlighted the significance of this achievement, stating, "This is the highest score achieved in the last 10 years of UPSC exams. We believe that while our event is the first of its kind, such events will become commonplace in a few years as several educational institutions race to solve papers quickly and accurately with AIs."

 Revolutionising UPSC preparation 

PadhAI, available on the Google Play Store, offers features designed to enhance UPSC preparation. These include news summaries, smart Previous Year Question (PYQ) searches, doubt clarification, interactive answer explanations, and book summaries.

The app aims to provide comprehensive support to aspirants, leveraging AI to streamline and optimize their study process.

PadhAI's success highlights the growing role of artificial intelligence in education. As AI continues to develop, its applications in various sectors, including exam preparation, are expected to expand, offering new tools and methods to enhance learning and performance.
