I’m literally promoting this video using social posts written by ChatGPT.
Everybody is talking about ChatGPT.
But what is ChatGPT, what can ChatGPT do, and how does it work?
Well, in this video, we’re about to find out.
Hey friends!
I’m Tasia and welcome back to my YouTube Channel where I share tech tips and app reviews.
Today we’re jumping into ChatGPT.
So, let’s go!
So first things first: what is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is a chatbot created by OpenAI in the fall of 2022.
This chatbot is built using OpenAI’s GPT-3 large language models.
And GPT, by the way, stands for Generative Pre-trained Transformer.
So basically, it’s an AI program that can answer any question, big or small.
It’s a chatbot that’s trained to learn what you mean when you ask a question.
So it’s always learning and answering things conversationally.
Meaning, it can interact with you in real-time, producing a very human like diaglogue.
So now that we know what it is, let’s jump into some examples and take a look at how
to use ChatGPT and how ChatGPT works.
To sign up for ChaGPT you can head to chat.openai.com - and I’ll link that below for ya.
When you first sign up for ChatGPT - which is free for now at least - you’ll add your
name and verify your identity with your phone number.
A popup will appear telling you what ChatGPT’s goal is as well as a bit of a warning that
sometimes the system may produce misleading content and that’s it’s not intended to
give advice.
You’ll then be informed how ChatGPT collects data and told not to share any sensitive information.
This is all important to keep in mind.
Along with the fact that ChatGPT is pulling information from a whole whack of text that
exists on the internet, from mostly before 2021.
So, at least for now, keep that in mind in your conversations.
Further, ChatGPT’s initial language model has been fine-tuned by feeding it an enormous
number of questions and answers by human AI trainers.
Because, remember, it’s a language model that’s what?
Always learning.
And something else that sets ChatGPT apart is that it’s been designed to refuse inappropriate
questions and to avoid making stuff up by providing responses on things it’s not been
trained on.
But with that said, what can ChatGPT do?
Let’s jump back in and start a new chat to find out.
Of course, you can ask ChatGPT basic questions, but let’s start with a different example
and ask ChatGPT to write some song lyrics for us.
Can you write a love song in the style of Taylor Swift?
And this is literally being generated in real time.
I think it thought about it for 1 whole second before it started writing an entire song in
the style of my Queen.
Can you believe this?
But let’s see how well ChatGPT did.
So ‘He walked in and my heart skipped a beat, I couldn't believe the way he smiled
at me, He said "hi" and I knew right then, That he was the one, my future and my best
friend.’
We’re off to a pretty good start here, but did you peep that chorus?
‘Cause he's got that Taylor Swift style That makes my heart race for a while
He's got that Taylor Swift smile That makes me believe everything will be worthwhile’
So, I mean, I didn’t want a song about Taylor Swift or her awesome smile, I wanted in the
style of Taylor Swift.
But you can get a pretty good idea here of how it’s composing this song and of how
it’s generating responses in general.
So think about it - you can use this method to write a play, write a story, write an essay,
write a blog post, create a job description, create a job application, write jokes, compose
a marketing email even.
So let’s start a new chat, by clicking on new chat in the top left, and let’s prompt
chatGPT to write an email promoting my new youtube video about how chatGPT works.
Talk about meta.
So here’e my prompt, we’ll hit enter and see how it does.
Holy moly, here we go.
I’m getting quite the response for a possible email to promote this YouTube video.
And obviously, I’ll tweak a few things - like it doesnt know the title of what I’m calling
this video, but I can adjust that.
It literally did most of the work for me.
And boy, I really should have done this prior to recording so I could have just copied it’s
own description of itself - one of the most advanced language models available today - how
it’s able to understand and respond to natural language input, making it a powerful tool
for a wide range of applications.
I love it.
But if you don’t love it,
or if something doesn’t load for you right away, you can regenerate the response to try
again.
Ah, ok so you can see in this one, it’s reworded it slightly, it’s a bit shorter,
and it’s giving me a spot to add a video link in the email.
So now, maybe I want to make this whole chat about promoting this video.
So let’s have ChatGPT write some social posts.
Let’s ask it to use this same style, but in a tweet.
Using this style, promote this video in a tweet.
And would you look at that - my tweet is written - Excited to share our latest YouTube video
on #ChatGPT!
Learn all about the inner workings of this advanced language model and its real-world
applications.
Don't miss out!
#AI #NLP [Link to video].
This is actually a really good promo tweet so I’m going to copy that and use it to
promote this video.
And I’m guessing I can do the same thing if I want to promote it on Facebook.
So, now write a facebook post promoting this video.
Guys, it’s literally doing all my work for me.
Wowza.
In hindsight, I really should have had it write this entire video script.
What a time saver.
But you get the idea here that the possibilities are endless.
So these are cool writing examples, but what else could you write with ChatGPT?
Well, you can write lines of code, even theoretically develop an app using ChatPGT, in programming
languages like JavaScript, Python and React.
You could use it to check your code for errors, or maybe even develop new programming languages.
So let’s see how well ChatGPT does when it comes to coding.
Let’s start pretty basic.
I’ll start a new chat to stay organized.
OK, how do you write hello, world!
Program in python?
And check this out - it’s given me the code and then explained the proper function and
what it’s used for.
Plus, we could easily copy the code out from here if we wanted to as well.
Or we can ask it to write that in html.
So here, it’s generated html code that creates a webpage with a simple heading that says
hello, world!
So, if you’re learning to code - I wouldn’t tell you to rely fully on ChatGPT, but you
can definitely use it to check your code for errors.
So to do this you can just ask ChatGPT to please find the bug in this code.
And I’ll paste in an example here from the internet, so it may not be perfect, but we’ll
get the idea.
And would you look at that?
It’s pinpointed what the error is and where and what it should be replaced with.
And not to totally tell you to do all your homework using ChatGPT, you could also have
it solve math problems for you.
And ya, it’ll show its work.
Find the centroid of the triangle whose vertices are the points A (8 , 4) B (1 , 3) and C (3
, -1).
I’m going to be quite honest with you, I don’t even understand this, but now I don’t
need to because ChatGPT has solved the problem for me, and completely shown its work, in
a matter of seconds.
What a time to be alive.
Child Tasia is freaking out.
Like, it’s hard to even comprehend this is a thing in the world right now.
Does not compute.
Anyway, ChatGPT is actually getting banned at some schools now because of some of these
capabilities.
Think about it - it could literally do your entire homework assignment for you.
Not that I’m saying you should do that…but you could.
Can you believe?
Now before we wrap up, there are a few things in the ChatGPT dashboard that are really handy
and important to know.
On the left, you’ll notice all your chats are automatically saved for you.
You can edit a chat name, or delete the chat from here if you want.
If you need to reference an older chat you can just open it up from the left panel, and
continue on with that conversation if you like.
Or, on the left, you can clear all conversations.
I like having my entire history here, so I wouldn’t do that, but it’s up to you.
So hopefully by now you understand a little bit more about what ChatGPT is and how it
works.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going back to chat a little bit more with my AI bestie.
So that’s how ChatGPT works.
