ā[L]anguage interfaces are going to be a big deal, I think,ā tweeted Sam Altman when he launched ChatGPT. No kidding.
ChatGPT nearly instantly started blowing up the internet with people sharing examples of the chat assistant in action. Prompts range from asking the bot to re-write song lyrics and biblical-style verses about off-beat topics to de-bugging code and testing its responses to an MBA exam (with a few messages of correspondence, ChatGPT received an "A|").
How is ChatGPT different? If youāve tried GPT-3 before and have found its limitations problematic for real-life use, we donāt blame you. However, ChatGPT is in fact an upgraded model worth looking at. It's powered by GPT-3.5. Like its predecessor, the new model trained on tons of internet content, but GPT-3.5 can handle more complex instructions and produce better long-form writing. It's also better at rhymes for things like poems and lyrics. And it's less likely to generate harmful or biased text, though OpenAI still lists such problematic issues as an āoccasionalā limitation.
What does this mean? As Altman said in his tweets, āthis is something that sci-fi really got right.ā ChatGPT gives us the most practical application we've seen yet for using AI in our conversations with customer support, assistants, and more. Or to having AI write our homework, blog articles, grant proposals, (fill in the blank). Some experts even speculate that we may be a few years away from this technology replacing search engines like Google.
Whatās next? GPT-4 (or whatever it may be called) is coming. OpenAI is expected to release the newest model sometime in the near future, potentially in 2023.
Altman said ChatGPT is āan early demo of what's possibleā¦ it's very much a research release.ā In the meantime, you can bet weāll be rewriting more song lyrics from the perspective of cats... and other important stuff.
