Poll results: Chat GPT and you

A majority of reader respondents have heard of Chat GPT, but don’t use it.

What is it exactly? When you type the question “What is Chat GPT?” into the Chat GPT chat field, the following answer emerges in a few seconds: 

“Chat GPT is a language model developed by OpenAI. It is based on the GPT-3.5 architecture, which stands for ‘Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3.5.’ It is part of a series of models that utilize deep learning techniques to generate human-like text based on the provided input.

“GPT models are trained on a vast amount of text data from the internet and can generate coherent and contextually relevant responses to a wide range of prompts.”
