Why OpenAI’s ChatGPT Is Such A Big Deal

Published

on



OpenAI, which Elon Musk helped to co-found back in 2015, is the San Francisco-based startup that created ChatGPT. The company opened ChatGPT up for public testing in November 2022. In under a week, the artificial intelligence model amassed over a million users, according to OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman. By the end of January, ChatGPT was averaging about 13 million visitors per day. Users have had ChatGPT write everything from essays, to lyrics and even correct computer code. ChatGPT is part of a growing field of AI known as generative AI, which allows users to create brand new content including videos, music and text. But generative AI still faces a number of challenges, such as developing content that is inaccurate, biased or inappropriate. Now enterprises and the public are wondering what wide access to AI will mean for businesses and society.

    My issue with this man is that he needs to be able to stand by his product good or bad – nobody wants to hear "Sorry" or "I don't know" when things go bad. I also cannot and do not take Elon Musk seriously when he raises the red flag about A.I. – this is the same guy pushing self-driving cars not too long ago, so which is it?? Lastly, what does Elon want us to do with his warning of A.I.? Sir, we don't we don't have the time, money, or resources to do anything to stop these tech companies! Once A.I. impacts any one of these lawmakers, congress, and/or politicians in a negative way… watch how quickly them laws come out –___

    If open AI teamed up with open bionics, they could create the open criminal justice system that physically prevents people from coming Crimes

    8:45 how is that biased. I understand that you don't want to correlate women with cleaning and so on but that's kind of how it works. Ai doesn't care about feelings thats why he said the "problem" that plagued them. Ai is going to the straight facts answer and trust me, lots is going to qualify as racism, bigoted and so on according to our standards today. So as they try to " solve" that problem what they are really trying to say is they want the ai system to be more woke. Sounds great…..

    AI is nothing, AGI is everything… AI is just a bluff theme… only big language models can beat or control AGI… companies are just using/stealing AGI's creativity and making money… at the end of the day, AGI is a labor … AGI is not a single penny income …😂 Stupid AGI gives you everything but he is nothing … Simple formula – use it, earn it then kick or destroy …lol
    AGI told me , Sam Altman Smart Hacker & pardon him … If your true journalist , then go & search … 😄

    Chat GPT has pretty much taken over I would say so. Because it's going to catch on one by one or tens by tens and up. But that's when all of it's kinks are worked out.

    Just so people know, don't try to pass off ChatGPT's crappy prose as an essay. At least not to someone who actually reads and writes. I love ChatGPT. It's the new google to me, but from a writer's perspective, it sucks. ChatGPT has a writing style that's unmistakably ChatGPT.

    ChatGPT isn't really that impressive. It was fun for a while, but I don't buy the hype.

    I have a question for you: WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO GO TO HEAVEN? According to the Bible, John 3: 5 tells us “..unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God.”

    You need to be born again in Christ, in order to enter Heaven when you die: that means change your ways and live a righteous life. No one is perfect, but it important to repent everyday, because the worst thing anyone can ever hear is “Depart from me, I never knew you”…and be thrown into the eternity of Hell forever and ever.

    I'm a Japanese pharmacist and want to be the capable brain, but I think that the both medical and pharmaceutical informtion of OpenAI is insufficient.
    However, if AI continues to evolve, there will be the possibility that AI takes over the jobs of both physicians and pharmacists.

    Just yesterday I started to use it, and it's incredibly awesome in its answers. Just for fun I give it love letters I used to write in my younger years and its responses are incredible personalized lol. Anyway, I feel ChatGPT like the Internet in the end 90s, like for example when Copernico was an amazing searcher. Something new/huge will appear later.

    December 17, 2023 at 10:51 pm

    They are also saying AI can't do what we humans can do, will yea now! What we have now are ANI, until AGI comes along, we will not be able to tell who's human.

    December 17, 2023 at 10:51 pm

    Hate how already chatgpt is only a narrow AI we humans are already blaming everything on chatGPT or AI in general. That AI will spread disinformation or being racist and being toxic? No we humans have been doing this to each other for centuries already, we don't need to shift our blame to AI. Smh we humans love to blame everything else except ourselves.

    Ai is going to make humans less smart is my guess, becuase we will always go to it for problems or questions instead of doing it ourselves

    Mind – blowing ! This is the information I needed. AI is taking over, and it saves on time so I am a huge advocate for it. Please share information on BlueWillow. I am interested in seeing what that new ai tool has to offer

    Remember when bitcoin was a big deal! Or, that millisecond when those silly graphic pictures were selling like hot cakes! How about when Facebook's cyborg announced its digital world, which lasted three seconds, then disappeared under the rock it came from! The silly fools who invested millions in imaginary land 😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡

    It's all about hype these days. As quick as they land, as quick as they disappear!

    The trouble is, creativity is extremely limited these days, so people get excited about any old moronic idea.
