ChatGPT, the AI chatbot, created a huge buzz recently. It is a large language model that can follow instructions in a prompt and provide a detailed response.
The chatbot can answer your questions, write an essay, compose emails, correct your codes, and perform many other tasks.
OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, said currently, the tool is in its research and feedback-collection phase and is open for the public to try out.
What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is a chatbot launched by OpenAI, an AI research and deployment company, in November 2022. It processes natural language with the help of AI technology that allows you to have human-like conversations and much more. The language model can answer questions and assist you with tasks such as composing emails, writing essays, and coding.
ChatGPT, the large language model chatbot, is developed on top of OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 family and is fine-tuned with supervised and reinforcement learning techniques.
Who built ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is built by OpenAI, an Artificial Intelligence (AI) research company based in San Francisco, California, United States.
OpenAI Inc. is the non-profit AI research company of the for-profit OpenAI LP.
Sam Altman is the CEO of OpenAI and was previously president of Y Combinator.
Microsoft invested $1 billion in OpenAI LP in 2019 and a second multi-year investment of $10 billion in January 2023.
In this next phase of our partnership with @OpenAI, we will deliver the best AI infrastructure, models, and toolchain for customers to safely and responsibly build and run their applications on Azure. https://t.co/hX48N3vPv8

What methods does ChatGPT follow?
ChatGPT language model is trained using Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) so that the AI learns what answer a human expects after asking a question.
What are the Limitations of ChatGPT?
- Limitations on Harmful Response
- The quality of Answers Depends on the Quality of Queries
- Answers Are Not Always Correct
ChatGPT is specially trained to avoid providing harmful responses. So it will decline those types of questions.
ChatGPT is sensitive to phrases, so if one phrasing does not provide you with the answer, a slight rephrase to your query can help you to get the answer. It means more accurate questions will get more accurate answers.
As the model is in its feedback collection stage so sometimes you might have some false negatives and positive information.
Is ChatGPT FREE to use?
ChatGPT is in its research and feedback-collection phase and is currently open for users to get feedback and learn about its strengths and weaknesses. During this research phase, using ChatGPT is free. You can try it at chat.openai.com.
SAM Altman, OpenAI’s chief, said in a tweet, ChatGPT is now free to use, but it will need to monetize to compensate for the eye-watering compute costs.
How to use ChatGPT?
1. You need to create an account to start using ChatGPT. First, go to chat.OpenAi.com and register your account with your email.
2. Then log in to your ChatGPT account and accept the CHatGPT terms.
3. That’s it. Now you can interact with the chatbot.

Conclusion
The new AI language processing tool has been trending since its launch in November 2022.
OpenAI is constantly working to improve the chatbot, and still, there are possibilities of providing wrong information by the chatbot, as AI is not without its flaws.
There are discussions on social media and forums about whether chatbots can replace search engines like Google. The answer is still far away. Google itself has already created an AI chatbot called LaMDA, and it is close to a human conversation.
