ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence(AI) chatbot that can answer some questions, communicate with other languages besides English, translate programming languages, such as HTML, Python, Java, C++, etc, and can formulate written content like articles, emails, essays, which are all based on whatever prompt that you enter inside it.
an AI research laboratory founded in 2015 by tech eminences: Elon Musk,
Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, Wojciech Zaremba, IIya Sutskever, and John Schulman.
According to the company's statement on their website, they wanted to build a nonprofit,
which is mainly on expanding artificial intelligence "in an approach that will most
likely impact all of humanity." Some of their main products during the past 8 years include,
Gym, RoboSumo, API, Microscope, GPT-4, Codex, Whisper, Dactyl, DALLE-2, and ChatGPT.
According to linkedin.com, "At first, tech critics shut ChatGPT by arguing that it was a "Spammy auto-generated content" tool. Then, other educators/adminstrators discovered their students by using it to write long assignments in a matter of seconds or less. Instead of confessing as to where that information came from, students claimed that it was their original source/content."
The chatbot is so revolutionary, highly advanced, and knowledgable that people are immediately starting to see the true prospective of AI and how, for better or for worse, it could interpret the future of humanity. According to sfchronicle.com, "The current boom in generative artificial intelligence driven by tools like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which can seemingly produce organic text, images and more, represents a leap forward both in what the technology can do and its potential to influence everything from the internet itself to the minds of the people who use it."
According to builtin.com, "ChatGPT can help write cover letters for job seekers, produce test questions for teachers, write song lyrics for aspiring musicians and debug code for software developers, among other capabilities. It's also often used to generate ideas that aid in the creative process. Users can insert prompts asking ChatGPT for ideas on how to structure an essay, what content to include for a marketing campaign or possible topics for a blog post."
According to amberstudent.com, "Some of the limitations of ChatGPT include: not having common sense, no access to the internet, can't handle multiple tasks together, having limited knowledge, lack of creativity, provide in-depth information, facing difficulties, providing biassed answers, not understanding the context, can't express emotions, a need for fine-tuning, etc."
According to devprojournal.com, "Despite all of the cool things ChatGPT can be used
for, it can also be used to create malicious code. However, it’s not quite at the stage to really make an impact
just yet—which is a good thing. Currently, auto-coding AI programs such as ChatGPT are not capable of being used
to develop mission-critical code, such as programs capable of locating software vulnerabilities. Much more interesting
is ChatGPT’s incredible capability to generate relatively ‘cookie-cutter’ text that could plausibly have been written by a human.
In fact, the biggest commercial use case for ChatGPT-like tools is generating marketing content—since such content is typically based
on simple templates and standard wording."
According to the latest available data, ChatGPT currently has over 100 million users. And the website generated 1.6 billion visits in June 2023.
Some of the countries that banned ChatGPT include: Eritrea, Eswatini, South Sudan, Syria, Chad, Yemen, Afghanistan, North Korea, Libya, Sudan, Cuba, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Russia, and China.
According to netskope.com, "Organizations must take serious countermeasures to safeguard the confidentiality and the security of their sensitive data in our modern cloud-enabled world, by monitoring the use and abuse of risky SaaS applications and instances, limit the exposure of sensitive information through them and secure confidential documents from accidental loss and theft."
