ChatGPT is, basically, a cool online AI chatbot created by OpenAI in December 2022. You can ask it anything, and it will give you an answer.
Curious about what ChatGPT is? Here’s the scoop:
“ChatGPT is a smart AI language model developed by OpenAI that can generate text similar to humans based on the input it receives. It can answer questions, summarize texts, tell stories, and more. It’s commonly used in AI conversations to chat with users in a human-like way.”
Wondering what ChatGPT is up to? It’s been used to chat on dating apps, write essays, create malware (yikes), and more. But it’s a bit of a tricky tool ethically, as it could spread misinformation, give mental health advice, and even has celebrities like Nick Cave and Twitter buzzing about it. So, what’s the deal with ChatGPT? Here’s the lowdown on this hot AI.
Chatbots: From Past to Present
Chatbots have been around for ages, often used in customer service. The term “chatbot” is actually a fun twist on “ChatterBot,” coined by Michael Mauldin in 1994. From Mauldin’s Verbot to today’s ChatGPT, chatbots have come a long way.
AI vs. Non-AI Chatbots
Not all chatbots are created equal. While some use basic keywords to respond (not always helpful), ChatGPT uses advanced AI to have in-depth conversations. I’ve even chatted about my cat with it for half an hour!
Is ChatGPT Like Ava From Ex Machina?
Despite Joe Rogen’s comparison, ChatGPT is not an evil AI like Ava from the movie Ex Machina. It’s smart, but not quite alive. Some say it’s passed the Turing test, a benchmark for human-like AI behavior, but ChatGPT itself says it’s just a program without consciousness or feelings.
