ChatGPT:
The AI Chatbot That Is Taking Over The World
Feb 8, 2023Remember how Google came into being? Was it not the day of finding answers to everything seemed easy and possible? While it seemed derivative and authoritative, what if told you, you could still find answers in a more conversational way? Welcome the OpenAI AI Chatbot that has taken over the world, ChatGPT.
What is Chat GPT?
ChatGPT is a conversational AI model developed by OpenAI, capable of generating human-like responses to text-based prompts. It’s based on transformer architecture and has been trained on a massive corpus of text data from the internet. This enables it to generate a wide range of responses, from answering questions to even programming codes.
This AI chatbot allows you to seek information through natural language prompts. It offers the answers in a conversational way but it is a little stilted because it is still under development. The AI bot is able to remember the thread of your inputs and thus use the previous questions to form answers for future questions. It is able to form answers because of the gargantuan amount of data input fed to it through the internet, thus rendering the GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) to this AI chat tool.
When having a conversation with this AI you will find it pretty knowledgeable in the specific areas in which it has received good training, i.e fed with a humongous amount of data. It is not omniscient and can not replace the human mind but it is informative at best.

Who Created Chat GPT?
Astonishingly this AI chatbot that is the talk of the tech town is created by a group of like-minded 375 talented researchers and engineers at OpenAI, an AI research company founded in 2015, based in the USA. The company envisions building a “safe” AI circuit that is beneficial to humans. It first came into the limelight with GPT-3 which creates text that seems like a human wrote it, and then with DALL-E which creates what is now known as ‘generative art’ as per the text prompts one type. ChatGPT is based on GPT3 and GPT3.5 updates which are examples of the AI technology known as large language models. Presently ChatGPT is free of cost and has paid version which the creators claim to give a faster response.

Is Chat GPT Safe?
After its release, millions of people started using ChatGPT for their businesses, however, there are a few things you must be careful about when it comes to chatting with this AI.
The OpenAI, a for-profit research lab, and the creators behind ChatGPT have warned people to not openly rely on the ai chatbot currently.
“It’s a mistake to be relying on it for anything important right now,” OpenAI Chief Executive Sam Altman tweeted. “We have lots of work to do on robustness and truthfulness.”
In fact, if you ask ChatGPT itself, about knowing everything in this world, it will humbly answer “As an AI language model, I’ve been trained on a diverse range of text from the internet, but my knowledge is limited to the information that was available at my training data’s 2021 cutoff. While I can provide answers and generate responses based on the information I’ve learned, there may be things I don’t know or misunderstand. I’m constantly learning and improving, but I’m not capable of knowing everything.”
A lot of people have the opinion that ChatGPT can take over Google, replace humans and just do everything, becoming Skynet (any Terminator fan reading this?), but here is a catch, if you look closely ChatGPT does not know anything at all actually. It is only a chat AI that is enabled to recognize patterns in the ginormous swath of data harvested right from the internet. Then it is human assistance that trains it to deliver more useful dialogues. Therefore, the answers you get can sound dubious, and plausible and they might even be entirely untrue and wrong, as informed by the creators themselves.
However, when compared to its predecessors who were all bearers of the idea of ‘chat with an AI’ like Google Assistant, Siri, etc, ChatGPT is more intuitive as it follows up in the conversation really well. For example, when I asked ChatGPT about how it was feeling on a fine day? It goes on saying “I’m an AI language model developed by OpenAI, so I don’t have feelings. But I’m functioning properly and ready to help with any questions you have!”
Therefore, if you are looking forward to seeking information in a direct, derivative manner that is far more conversational and in a more cohesive language, you shall find the OpenAI chat bot helpful, it shall answer like a Harvard professor, but throw it a curveball with something perceptive or creative, and you shall be delighted with humor and not much sense. ChatGPT is here to help you with sharing information in a more conversational, intuitive, and insightful way.
