What's
in the news?
● Non-paying
users of OpenAI’s ChatGPT will be able to input custom instructions to better
streamline the chatbot’s responses and take into consideration the user’s
specific needs or preferences.
ChatGPT:
● ChatGPT
is a chatbot powered by artificial
intelligence that can be used to ask queries.
● This
chatbot is designed in such a way that the replies to the queries are both
technical and jargon-free.
● It
is a natural language processing (NLP)
model that works using a large corpus of conversational data.
● It
is capable of generating human-like replies, allowing natural conversation
between the user and the virtual assistant.
● The
chatbot makes use of Reinforcement
Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) technology. However, it is modified to
appear more friendly to humans.
● It
is based on GPT-3.5 - a deep-learning language model that produces human-like
text.
○ GPT
stands for Generative Pre-trained
Transformer 3.
● The
technology produces different answers for the same question in the future since
it improves over time and understands queries better through machine learning.
Application:
● It
will answer queries just like a human would.
● It
can answer follow-up questions and can also admit its mistakes, challenge
incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests.
● It
is being seen as a replacement for the basic emails, party planning lists, CVs,
and even college essays and homework.
● It
can also be used to write code, solve math equations, and even spot errors in
code.
● It
can write fiction but not at the level of a humans.
Limitations:
● It
may generate incorrect information, and create
“biased” situations such as racial and sexist biases.
● Its
knowledge of the world and events after 2021 is limited.
● The
chatbot gives answers which are grammatically correct and read well - though
some have pointed out that these lack context and substance, which is largely
true.
Go
back to basics:
OpenAI:

is a research institute and company
dedicated to developing artificial intelligence technology in a responsible and
safe manner.
