Chat GPT is an AI (artificial intelligence) chatbot, a very smart one.
Unlike most chatbots that follow specific rules to generate a templated answer,
Chat GPT stands out because of its ability to generate human-like answers.
In a recent tweet, Open AI the company behind the chatbot encouraged people to talk with it:
Try talking with ChatGPT, our new AI system which is optimized for dialogue. Your feedback will help us improve it. https://t.co/sHDm57g3Kr

Best described, the experience you have with it is similarly compared to having a conversation with a human but in this case it’s not, it’s an AI powered chatbot.
But you’re probably wondering what is Chat GPT used for?
It’s not a case of having small talk like you would with a voice AI application like Alexa.
You can be extremely specific and ask questions like ‘How to register a business in South Africa‘ , and it also has been
used for translating languages and can even help you to write code.
Here’s an example of how you can get Chat GPT to help write code for a particular problem

Seems wild right? Well best believe Chat GPT can help you with all of those things.
Because of its assistant-like nature, a question probably playing on most peoples minds ‘how can chat GPT help my business?‘
It’s for sure, not going to run errands for you like a human assistant would but see it as an AI assistant that helps with answers to your questions, which you can use as research or to draw inspiration from.
Never copy, paste to publish, especially as a business owner.
It’s simply not authentic work and you wouldn’t be adding real value to your audience.

Another question I’ve seen floating around on Google Trends:
Is Chat GPT free? Yes, it is and available to anyone using the internet.
This AI powered chat bot seems to be ticking all the right boxes.
But the concept of duality is always present.
Where there is right, there is wrong.
The chatbot is not perfect and isn’t always right hence me stating earlier to use it to draw inspiration from
and don’t be lazy too, cross check the information it presents you with against other credible sources on the internet.
