What Is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is an AI tool created by OpenAI. Since the moment ChatGPT was released it has gone viral.
ChatGPT is a conversational robot that was trained on a huge amount of text data and it interacts with us as if it were a real person. You can ask it questions like “Creative ideas for a 15-year-old’s birthday” and immediately get a list of ideas. The robot also writes essays, poems, songs, answer test questions and many other things.
The chatbot isn’t perfect and has some limitations:
- Limited knowledge of the world after 2021.
- It may occasionally provide misleading information or harmful instructions.
Here is what Elon Musk thinks about ChatGPT:
ChatGPT is scary good. We are not far from dangerously strong AI.
