Definition:
ChatGPT is an intelligent chatbot that helps automate chat tasks. Its name is the acronym for Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer. Created by Open AI in 2022, it is based on the OpenAI GPT-3 engine and is designed to provide natural and fluid responses to the user through chat through learning and reinforcement techniques. The chatbot is built on machine learning technology, which means it can adapt to different situations and interactions to deliver a more personalized and effective experience.
How ChatGPT works
ChatGPT is based on a unique training model: Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF). This method trains the assistant by having humans simulate artificial conversations with him, and then adapts his responses based on how accurately they reflect natural human dialogue. By repeating this process several times, ChatGPT strives to be more accurate in understanding users’ questions.
What you can do with ChatGPT
Among the many possibilities offered by GPT Chat we can highlight the following:
- Write code. You can generate scripts and functions based on the instructions you provide.
- Give detailed explanations on complex and clarified aspects
- Solve mathematical problems step by step.
- Write texts with different styles.
- Compose musical lyrics.
- Explain mathematical theorems.
ChatGPT limitations
ChatGPT presents challenges such as the potential for over-optimization due to its reliance on human oversight. It is also limited by a lack of knowledge about post-2021 events. In some cases it has also detected some algorithmic biases in the generation of responses.
Despite its ability to produce results that seem real, ChatGPT is unable to understand the complexity of human language and instead relies merely on statistical patterns.
