What is ChatGPT?
- ChatGPT is a new AI chat tool from OpenAI that uses the latest advances in natural language processing and machine learning to generate intelligent and engaging responses to user input.
- ChatGPT is based on the powerful GPT 3.5 series of language learning models (LLM)Β and interacts in a conversational way. The dialogue format makes it possible for ChatGPT to answer follow-up questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises and reject inappropriate requests.
- GPT stands for Generative Pre-trained Transformer and this is a computer language model that relies on deep learning techniques to produce human-like text based on inputs.
- ChatGPT is a sibling model to InstructGPT which is trained to follow instructions in a prompt and provide a detailed response.Β
- It is trained using a machine learning technique called Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF).
- ChatGPT is currently available on OpenAIβs website.
Key Difference between Chatbot and Search EngineΒ
The difference between search engines and chatbots is that search engines have short-term memory when providing results, whereas chatbots can have persistent, long-term memory as well as provide task execution.Β
- Chatbots have an advantage in being able to provide personalised and more accurate results based on persistent, historical interactions. In contrast, search engines can provide a minimal level of personalised results based on previous searches.
ChatGPT LimitationsΒ
Some of the limitations of ChatGPT are as follows:
- May occasionally generate incorrect information.
- May occasionally produce harmful instructions or biased content.
- Limited knowledge of the world and events after 2021.
