OpenAI Releases ChatGPT - An AI Chatbot

What is OpenAI?

The company, OpenAI, was formed in 2015. This business aims to improve artificial intelligence (AI) for the good of all. Its head office is in San Francisco, the United States of America (USA). Sam Altman is the organization's chief executive officer (CEO).

Over the years, OpenAI has been involved in several interesting projects, including the development of ChatGPT.

What is ChatGPT?

The ChatGPT chatbot was launched on 30th November 2022. A chatbot is a computer software designed to respond like a human. In other words, you will feel like you are talking to a human friend instead of an AI bot.

The chatbot was designed in a way that talking with it seems natural. A person can ask for advice on anything, such as how to plan a birthday party or make chicken curry. Really interesting, no?

The chatbot is still not perfect, though. It sometimes gives incorrect answers. The company is trying to make the chatbot error-free.

How does ChatGPT work?

During its development, OpenAI trained its chatbot by having humans act out interactions between a user and an AI. In a similar way to how people learn the basics in school, the chatbot was taught how to respond.

The chatbot attempts to understand human questions and provides textual responses that resemble human responses.

What can ChatGPT be used for, and how can you use it?

You can use it to write emails and computer code, and also ask it questions like what to name your pet dog. You can ask the chatbot anything you would ask your friend.

To use the chatbot, go to the OpenAI website and create an account there. You will have to verify your email and phone number before you can start chatting with the chatbot.

You can give it a go if you want, but ask your parents’ permission first.

What did we learn from this article?

We learned just how far technology has come that an AI can be created to talk with. Who knows, perhaps in the future we'll have a more powerful AI that can do all of our work.
