What Is Chat GPT

Introduction

ChatGPT is a powerful artificial intelligence bot developed by OpenAI. Its makers Altman, Musk, and other Silicon Valley investors created an artificial intelligence research non-profit organization in 2015 and unveiled it to the world on 30th November 2022. ChatGPT is Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer. It is a powerful AI bot that is capable of understanding human speech and producing in-depth writing that is easily understood by humans. The question-answer format use in ChatGPT makes it interesting.

OpenAI's ChatGPT has garnered the attention of the whole world with its unique feature to answer the public's questions.  Chat GPT full form is Generative Pre-Trained Transformer. With its wide range of uses, people have been keen on knowing what is ChatGPT, how to use it, whether it is free or one has to pay a fee to use it and many other questions. Let us answer to all your queries here.

How can you access ChatGPT?

ChatGPT can be accessed on your mobile browser or computer/laptop. Using ChatGPT is very easy. To know how to use chatGPT, follow the steps mentioned below:

Step 1: Visit https://chat.openai.com/auth/login to get started.

Step 2: Sign up on this website by entering your full name.

Step 3: Verify your account through a code sent to your mobile phone or email id.

Step 4: Once the verification is completed from your end, you can begin using it.

How does ChatGPT work?

ChatGPT runs on a language model architecture created by OpenAI called the Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT). The specific GPT used by ChatGPT is fine-tuned from a model in the GPT-3.5 series, according to OpenAI. However, with a subscription to ChatGPT Plus, you can access ChatGPT with GPT-4, Open AI's most advanced model.

The language model was fine-tuned using supervised learning as well as reinforcement learning. The use of Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) is what makes ChatGPT especially unique. Through RLHF, human AI trainers provided the model with conversations in which they played both parts, the user and AI assistants, according to OpenAI.

What is the difference between ChatGPT and a search engine?

ChatGPT is a language model created to hold a conversation with the end user. A search engine indexes web pages on the internet to help the user find the information they asked for. ChatGPT does not have the ability to search the internet for information. It uses the information it learned from training data to generate a response, which leaves room for error.

Another major difference is that ChatGPT only has access to information up to 2021, whereas a regular search engine like Google has access to the latest information. So if you ask ChatGPT who won the World Cup in 2022, it wouldn't be able to give you a response as Google would.

What are ChatGPT's limitations?

Despite looking very impressive, ChatGPT still has limitations. Such limitations include the inability to answer questions that are worded in a specific way, as it requires rewording to understand the input question. A bigger limitation is a lack of quality in the responses it delivers -- which can sometimes be plausible-sounding but make no practical sense or can be excessively verbose.

Instead of asking for clarification on ambiguous questions, the model just guesses what your question means, which can lead to unintended responses to questions. Already this has led developer question-and-answer site StackOverflow to at least temporarily ban ChatGPT-generated responses to questions.

"The primary problem is that while the answers that ChatGPT produces have a high rate of being incorrect, they typically look like they might be good and the answers are very easy to produce," says Stack Overflow moderators in a post. Critics argue that these tools are just very good at putting words into an order that makes sense from a statistical point of view, but they cannot understand the meaning or know whether the statements it makes are correct.
