Elon Musk funded OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which arguably put AI chat into the mainstream. The tool allows users to give it prompts, and it delivers detailed responses. It goes further than your Google search; you ask a question, and it will write out the response. Users can even tell it how long the response should be.
Hey there, fifth grader! So, imagine you have a really smart friend named ChatGPT [that's me!]. ChatGPT is like a super-duper good listener and can understand and talk to you just like your other friends do. But what makes ChatGPT special is that it has read lots and lots of books, websites, and articles, and learnt a whole bunch of information from them. It remembers all that knowledge, so when you ask it a question or talk to it, it can give you answers and have interesting conversations.
With responses like that, it’s no wonder that it has been used to write exams, articles , and even help programmers write their programmes. This has raised a lot of questions surrounding the ethics of its uses.
