Putting G, P, And T Together

ChatGPT is writing essays, answering questions on the Bhagavad Gita, suggesting menu options for lunch, coding, and debugging code, writing new episodes of Star Wars, proposing itineraries for vacation travel, and even completing assignments for students.

It garnered a million users faster than any well-known app in recent times. Perhaps because it is filling in for the much-missing human interaction in people's lives today. Almost everyone is talking about it and enjoying the conversation too-till it gets technical.

Artificial intelligence (AI) of this scale is not easy to understand-or explain. And the profuse use of jargon makes things worse. On the other hand, it is mandatory to know more about it, especially if we plan to make any professional use of the tool. So, in this article we attempt to cut through the jargon with the help of some experts on the subject. This will help us understand the technology behind this chatbot, how it is different from others, what it is capable or incapable of, how to use it, whether there are other such worthy Al models, what does the future hold for it, and so on.

For some time, let us cut the chat and focus on the GPT!

AI is everywhere, how is ChatGPT different?

AI is all around us. From Netflix recommendations and browser ads to a game of chess, and those decision-influencing insights that a banking platform’s dashboard provides, it is all artificial intelligence. By now, we are all used to specific intelligence—being smart at one or few things (which applies to most of us also!). Yet, the kind of general intelligence and conversational skills displayed by OpenAI’s ChatGPT makes one’s nerves tingle—in anticipation, and in fear.

“There are two main differences between ChatGPT and traditional conversational AI models: the technology and user experience,” remarks Anurag Sahay, CTO and Managing Director - AI and Data Science, Nagarro.
