ChatGPT for Beginners
What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT, short for Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer, is a
conversational AI system developed by OpenAI, a leading artificial
intelligence research company. ChatGPT facilitates natural conversations
between humans and the bot.
ChatGPT is built on top of OpenAI’s foundational large language models
(LLMs) like GPT-4 (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) and its
predecessors. It uses advanced natural language processing (NLP)
algorithms to generate human-like responses to user inputs and can hold
conversations on a wide range of topics.
The 30th of November 2022 marked a significant milestone as OpenAI
unveiled the web preview of ChatGPT, opening its virtual doors to the
public. Since it first came out, OpenAI has been working hard to make
ChatGPT even better. They started with a Pro version using the powerful
GPT-4 model. After that, they added features like web browsing and
creating images with Dall-E. Now, ChatGPT is not just for chatting; it can do
much more, for example, looking at the web and making pictures.
