What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is a large language model fine-tuned with supervised and reinforcement learning techniques developed by OpenAI which specializes in dialogue. It is a prototype AI chatbot and a fine-tuned version of a model in OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 family of language models.
ChatGPT was launched in November 2022 and has gathered attention for its articulate and detailed responses. This newly launched OpenAI’s ChatGPT is not open source and produces text based on written prompts in an advanced and innovative way. It has been designed to interact with people.
According to an OpenAI summary of the language model, some of its characteristics are challenging incorrect premises, answering questions, declining inappropriate queries and even admitting its mistakes/errors.
Bern Elliot, vice president at Gartner said that ChatGPT learned to identify patterns that allow it to generate its own text imitating different writing styles as it was trained on huge amounts of text data.
OpenAI says that ChatGPT normally crawled the web, used archived books and wikipedia but the company doesn’t disclose what precise data was used for training the model.
How to register an OpenAI account?
It is very simple to use the ChatGPT, all you have to do is type in your text and receive the response. Yet, before you can use any of its tools OpenAI does require an account. If you don’t have an account you can register with an easy login with a Google or Microsoft account.
Otherwise, you can enter it manually if you have any other type of email. After this step, enter your phone number. Then enter the received confirmation number onto the registration page to complete the setup.
You know you have successfully registered once you see some housekeeping rules about ChatGPT.
How to use ChatGPT?
The ChatGPT webpage is simple and consists of an area for the results and a text box at the bottom for you to type your queries. OpenAI suggests inputting a statement for the best possible result.
For example, inputting “explain how the universe was created” will give a more accurate and detailed result than “how was the universe created,” even though both queries will give fairly comprehensive results. You also have the choice to get more particular inputting requests for an article with a specific number of paragraphs. We got a very comprehensive result, with the request “write a six-paragraph article explaining Sachin Tendulkar.”
The generator will carry out the commands with correct details if there is enough information available. Otherwise, it is possible for ChatGPT to start filling in gaps with wrong data. OpenAI records that these cases are rare. The company also records that ChatGPT also presently has “limited knowledge of global events after 2021.”
Nevertheless, you have the choice to use ChatGPT in dark mode or light mode. You also have the choice to put in queries constantly until you reset the thread to clear your previous requests or close your browser.
You can join the OpenAI Discord server and blog from the webpage.
Features
- This artificial intelligence bot can chat with you, write articles, poems and computer programs. But be careful how much you trust it, though.
- The tool allows you to type questions using common language that the chatbot answers in conversational language from a power player in artificial intelligence. Using past questions and answers to inform its next responses, the bot recalls the thread of your dialog. Its responses are obtained from immense volumes of data and information on the internet.
- The tool is pretty well informed and knowledgeable if not omniscient so it’s a great deal. Its responses can be innovative and sound downright authoritative. That’s why only a few days after its launch, over a million people are testing out ChatGPT.
- You can ask anything you want even though OpenAI recommends a few categories, such as asking for birthday party ideas, explaining quantum physics and getting programming assistance.
- ChatGPT’s power to follow a conversation is remarkable since its expertise is extensive. When I asked it for words that rhyme with “life,” it provided a few suggestions, then when I followed up “How about with punch?” it didn’t skip a part.
Conclusion:
ChatGPT has been viral since OpenAI launched the text-based artificial intelligence tool. In the world of generative AI, it’s the newest development which has captivated millions and billions of dollars in funding from tech investors.
Is ChatGPT better than Google search?
Asking a computer a question and getting an answer is very advantageous, and frequently ChatGPT provides the goods.
Google often provides you with its recommended responses to questions and with links to sites that it thinks will be relevant. Mostly ChatGPT’s responses far surpass what Google will recommend, so it’s easy to imagine GPT-3 is a competitor.
As with Google itself and other sources of information such as Wikipedia, it’s best practice to authenticate information from original sources before relying on it. So you should also think twice before trusting ChatGPT.
ChatGPT is made to eliminate ‘inappropriate requests’, a behaviour in line with OpenAI’s mission “to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity.”
If you inquire about what’s off limits, it will show you questions that are inappropriate, discriminatory or offensive. This consists of questions that are sexist, racist, transphobic, homophobic or otherwise hateful or discriminatory. Asking the AI bot to be a part of illegal activities is also off limits.
