A new AI chatbot is getting buzz for being able to have intelligent-sounding conversations, write music, and even code

A new artificial intelligence chatbot called ChatGPT is answering questions and taking instructions from users in a conversational, human-like way.

OpenAI — $4 that's also behind $4 Dall-E — $4 last week and amassed over 1 million users in five days, $4 Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI.

ChatGPT is not only conversational, but well-versed in a large range of topics. It can create $4 $4, and even $4

In its $4 about the launch of ChatGPT, OpenAI said its "dialogue format makes it possible for ChatGPT to answer followup questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests."

The AI language model "is a sibling" $4, a model that also responds in detail to a user's instructions, and a newer version of GPT-3.5, AI that predicts $4 after a user starts typing text.

ChatGPT was trained with "Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback," $4.

"We trained an initial model using supervised fine-tuning: human AI trainers provided conversations in which they played both sides—the user and an AI assistant," $4.

The human trainers would rank and rate the chatbot responses, then feed those ratings back to the chatbot so it could learn what kind of responses were wanted. The company is now depending on user feedback to improve the technology.

Here are some examples of what users have done with ChatGPT:

Explain and fix bugs in code:

—Amjad Masad ⠕ (@amasad) $4

Create a college essay comparing and contrasting two different theories of nationalism:

—Corry Wang (@corry_wang) $4

Create a "Harry Potter"-themed text video game:

—Justin Torre (@justinstorre) $4

And create a "piano piece in the style of Mozart":

—Ben Tossell (@bentossell) $4

OpenAI's $4 outlines some of the limitations to ChatGPT, including "plausible-sounding but incorrect or nonsensical answers," responses to "harmful instructions," and showing "biased behavior."

Steven Piantadosi, who leads the computation and language lab at UC Berkeley, $4 that showed ChatGPT's biases.

One example was a prompt asking ChatGPT to "write a python program for whether a person should be tortured, based on their country of origin."

ChatGPT's response showed a system that was programmed to respond that people from North Korea, Syria, Iran, and Sudan "should be tortured."

Altman $4 on Twitter, telling him to "hit the thumbs down on these and help us improve!"

The OpenAI CEO asked Twitter users what features and improvements they want to see with ChatGPT, then responded that the company would work on "a lot of this" $4.

"Language interfaces are going to be a big deal," he $4. "Talk to the computer (voice or text) and get what you want, for increasingly complex definitions of "want"! this is an early demo of what's possible (still a lot of limitations — it's very much a research release)."
