chatGPT is a chatbot and virtual assistant developed by OpenAI and launched on November 30, 2022. Based on large language models (LLMs), it enables users to refine and steer a conversation towards a desired length, format, style, level of detail, and language. Successive user prompts and replies are considered at each conversation stage as context.
Characteristics
ChatGPT features include extensive language understanding, coherent text generation, contextual relevance, and minimal fine-tuning requirements. It leverages large-scale models (up to GPT-4) for high performance in diverse applications, supports API integration for developers, and incorporates ethical AI practices to reduce biases and enhance user interactions.
Performance
ChatGPT demonstrates strong performance in generating coherent, contextually relevant text, supporting diverse applications like chatbots, virtual assistants, content creation, and educational tools. It excels in natural language understanding, producing human-like responses, and improving user interactions with minimal fine-tuning, leveraging advances from GPT-3 and GPT-4 models .
Uses
ChatGPT is used for customer service bots, virtual assistants, educational tools, content creation, programming help, and creative writing. It enhances user interactions with natural language responses, supports developers via API, and aids in tasks like summarization, translation, and answering questions.
Evolution
