What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is an AI chatbot system that OpenAI released in November. ChatGPT is a variant of the GPT (Generative Pre-training Transformer) language model that has been specifically designed and trained to perform well on tasks involving generating human-like text in a conversational context. It is able to generate coherent, natural language responses based on a given prompt or conversation history, and can be used to build chatbots, conversation agents, and other natural language processing applications.

This artificial intelligence bot can answer questions. You can ask it countless questions and will often get an answer that is useful.
There's a new AI bot in town: ChatGPT and even if you don't know about artificial intelligence, you'd better pay attention.
The tool, from a power player in artificial intelligence called OpenAI, lets you type questions using natural language, to which the chatbot gives conversational answers. The bot remembers the thread of your dialogue, using previous questions and answers to inform its next responses. Its answers are derived from huge volumes of information on the internet.
ChatGPT is designed to perform chatbot-like tasks, such as engaging in conversation and answering questions. It is trained on large datasets of human-generated text and uses machine learning algorithms to generate responses that are similar to those a human might give.
What kinds of questions can you ask?
You can ask anything, though you might not get an answer. OpenAI suggests more categories, such as planning a vacation, asking for birthday party ideas, getting programming help, and more.
I asked it to plan a goa trip, and it did. I asked it to write a poem, and it did, though I don't think any literature experts would be impressed. I then asked it to make it more exciting, and ChatGPT pumped it up with words like battlefield, adrenaline, thunder and adventure.
ChatGPT's expertise is extensive, and its ability to follow conversations is remarkable. When I asked, "Plan a Goa trip" ChatGPT responded,
"Sure! Here are some steps you can take to plan a trip to Goa:
- Decide on your travel dates and the duration of your trip. Consider the weather, festivals, and any other events or considerations that may affect your travel plans.
- Book your flights and accommodation. There are several options for flights to Goa, including direct flights from major cities in India and international hubs. You can choose from a range of accommodation options, including hotels, resorts, guesthouses, and vacation rentals.
- Plan your itinerary. Goa has a wide range of attractions and activities to choose from, including beaches, temples, churches, markets, and water sports. Consider what you would like to do and see, and plan your days accordingly.
- Pack for your trip. Goa has a tropical climate, so make sure to bring appropriate clothing and sunscreen. You may also want to bring a swimsuit, a hat, and comfortable shoes for exploring.
- Consider purchasing travel insurance. Travel insurance can provide coverage for unexpected events such as trip cancellations, medical emergencies, and lost or stolen luggage.
- Arrange for any necessary visas or travel documents. If you are traveling from outside of India, you may need a visa to enter the country. Make sure to check the visa requirements for your country and apply for a visa in advance of your trip.
"If you ask it a very well structured question, with the intent that it gives you the right answer, you'll probably get the right answer," said Mike Krause, data science director at a different AI company, Beyond Limits. "It'll be well articulated and sound like it came from some professor at Harvard. But if you throw it a curveball, you'll get nonsense."
ChatGPT is designed to weed out "inappropriate" requests, a behavior in line with OpenAI's mission "to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity."
Is ChatGPT better than Google search?
Asking a computer a question and getting an answer is useful, and often ChatGPT delivers the goods.
Google often supplies you with its suggested answers to questions and with links to websites that it thinks will be relevant. Often ChatGPT's answers far surpass what Google will suggest, so it's easy to imagine ChatGPT is a rival.
But you should think twice before trusting ChatGPT. As with Google itself and other sources of information like Wikipedia, it's best practice to verify information from original sources before relying on it.
Vetting the veracity of ChatGPT answers takes some work because it just gives you some raw text with no links or citations. But it can be useful and in some cases thought provoking. You may not see something directly like ChatGPT in Google search results, but Google has built large language models of its own and uses AI extensively already in search.
ChatGPT doesn't exactly know anything. It's an AI that's trained to recognize patterns in vast swaths of text harvested from the internet, then further trained with human assistance to deliver more useful, better dialog. The answers you get may sound plausible and even authoritative, but they might well be entirely wrong, as OpenAI warns.

Is ChatGPT free?
Yes, for now at least. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warned on Sunday, "We will have to monetize it somehow at some point; the compute costs are eye-watering." OpenAI charges for DALL-E art once you exceed a basic free level of usage.
