Who has created this wonderful ChatGPT ?

In the city of San Francisco, America, there is a company working intensively on artificial intelligence, which is OpenAI. This company has created Chat GPT. OpenAI is known worldwide for DALL E. It is a deep-learning model that generates images from text instructions.

The CEO of OpenAI is Sam Altman. He co-founded the independent research body OpenAI in 2015 with Tesla owner Elon Musk. At that time, the purpose of OpenAI was said to be to advance digital intelligence in such a way that humanity could benefit the most. In February 2018, Musk resigned from the company’s board and remains the only donor. Since 2019, Microsoft has invested hugely in OpenAI.

Qualities that make it special

• You made a query. This conversational ai bot replied immediately. But if you are not able to satisfy the answer of  gpt chatbot, then it can give you different answers.

• This conversational ai bot can answer ‘follow-up questions’ 

• It admits its mistakes and challenges misconceptions

• It is designed to respond to any type of queries. Along with this, it has also been equipped with the ability to reject violent, provocative and harmful questions.

• It not only uses vocabulary and information, but also understands words in their correct context.

Room for improvement

Nothing is perfect, this also applies to technology. ChatGPT also has few limitations.

• Many times biased information can be found on gpt chatbot. This is because no matter how fine this chat bot is, ultimately it works on the basis of AI data only. AI data is fed into its system by a person. It is quite possible that that person’s bias or biased approach may reflect in the results of ChatGPT.

• Sometimes it may give wrong or non-sense answers.

• In many cases, it has been found that despite being grammatically and factually accurate, there are subtext or context missing in its answer.

• The training of ChatGPT ended in 2021. That’s why there is information feed in its system only till then. If you want information about any event that happened after 2021, then gpt chatbot is not able to give it.

In what ways is it different from Google Search?

Whenever something is searched on Google, it shows many links available on the internet related to the searched topic on the search result page. To get the appropriate solution, the person will have to open those links.

Whenever a query is submitted on this conversational ai bot, it first understands that query. Then on the basis of the information available on the Internet generates and displays its answer. It does not share the link to the user, but generates answers by processing the data available within the innumerable links and extracting the relevant facts from it.

Is there a fee for ChatGPT?

ChatGPT has been available to users since November 2022. The use of this chatbot is free as it is currently running in “research preview” time. It is currently open for user trial. Feedback from them will give it an opportunity to respond to questions and correct its mistakes. But the CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, has given a hint that it should be monetized soon. Then after paying some fee you will be able to use gpt chatbot.

How to access ChatGPT?

To get your work done with this magical tool of Open AI, ChatGPT, first you have to fill some basic formalities.

Currently,  gpt chatbot is open to all users in beta form. To access it you must first go to openai.com. Where ‘Try’ will appear on the open window. After clicking on it a new sign-up page will open.

Is ChatGPT a big threat to Google?

Many veterans of the IT sector around the world have been apprehensive that  gpt chatbot may make Google unusable in the next two years. They say that this latest technology of chatbot will end the need for search engines. You must have also seen much such news in TV, newspapers, in which ChatGPT is being described as a killer tool for Google. 

Google’s business is very strong and deep rooted

Nothing can be said with certainty about the lethal effect of this conversational ai bot on Google’s existence.

Even today, about 8.5 billion things are being searched on Google every day. About 99 thousand searches are being done every second. On an average, a person searches something on Google 3 or 4 times every day. These figures show how deeply rooted Google’s business is. It will not collapse on mere apprehension. Anyway,  gpt chatbot is still a very new tool. It definitely has infinite possibilities for the future, but at present it is also surrounded by some limitations.

ChatGPT replies to any query in long text format. Whereas in all the studies done in the last few years, it has been found that the most consumed content by the users is video, followed by images and then text. Consumers who are used to watching content in video format in an entertaining manner, how can they limit themselves to text format only?

Google gives the user many options on one query. These include articles, website links, news, photos and videos. This conversational ai bot is not giving so many options to the users.

Anything can happen in the future, but it’s too early to say that ChatGPT will destroy Google’s empire.
