ChatGPT is getting the limelight.
“Chat generative pre-trained transformer” – the generative AI is getting a lot of attention.
Recently, Microsoft confirmed investing billions in its creator, OpenAI. This is the same company behind DALL-E, capable of generating a wide range of images in response to user prompts.
No doubt, ChatGPT is one of the most advanced language models currently available. It is a powerful AI tech that can generate human-like responses to prompts, under a wide range of topics and questions, and is trained on a large database of text.
The investment could mean integration of ChatGPT into popular Microsoft applications like Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Outlook.
It grants easy-peasy access.
AI has been around for many years and businesses have already been reaping its benefits. What makes ChatGPT different is the instantaneous responses and easy access to its features, revolutionizing the way people communicate with computers.
It does not require a lot of technical expertise. It’s as easy as creating an account, typing a question, and ChatGPT will generate a response in just seconds.
I got curious. I had to see for myself.
ChatGPT is everywhere. I’ve heard and read so much about it that I had to try it myself.
I asked ChatGPT how intelligent it is and here’s the answer I got.
“As a language model, my intelligence is limited to the tasks I have been trained on, such as understanding and generating text. I have been trained on a large dataset of text, which allows me to understand and generate text in a human-like way. However, my intelligence is not on par with that of a human. I do not have the ability to think, reason, or experience emotions like a human can. I am simply a tool that can assist with specific tasks based on the data that I have been trained on.”
Was it just me or this is a very humble reply from an AI chatbot? I was actually impressed. Did you feel that? There’s emotion to its response, human-like, as if you are speaking to an actual person on the other end.
ChatGPT is a powerful tool for sales and marketing teams.
There are many ways that ChatGPT can help with sales and marketing.
Marketing

✔️ Produce social media content faster (graphics, videos, text, etc.)
✔️ Generate personalized email
✔️ Create product descriptions, training manuals, FAQs
✔️ Can be integrated with other tools
Sales
✔️ Guide clients and customers through the sales process
✔️ Higher open rates and CTR of campaigns and lead to sales
✔️ Reinforce lead generation
✔️ Improve probability of closing a sale

✔️ Paraphrasing
The list could go on and on depending on how effectively we can utilize these powerful AI tools.
There are still several reservations.
First, it could inhibit a decline in the quality of writing as a vital human skill. Writing is essential in communication and expression, and the over-reliance on digital technology can lead to its deterioration.
Second, AI tools raise questions about copyright, plagiarism, and intellectual property protections. Companies creating and using AI technologies and businesses utilizing them must be aware and vigilant of the potential legal issues that may arise.
Third, there may still be errors. ChatGPT can be a bit chatty and wordy, and some information may be inaccurate although the structure is correct. Results may contain false facts, wrong analogies, and examples if the user is not careful.
If you’ve heard of the news, Meta had to pull down its language model for scientific tasks, Galactica, due to “made up” facts, just three days after being introduced.
Contamination of the internet with incorrect information is a huge risk and can be detrimental to users, leading to false beliefs and a lack of trust in the information they find, considering that our generation has become incredibly reliant on the internet.
Lastly, contrary to what a lot of us fear, jobs will not be lost. Although, the nature, requirements, and responsibilities could change. New jobs could emerge since other skills which used to be manually performed are now being automated.
Would ChatGPT recommend itself to us?
Again, I threw another question at ChatGPT. Would it recommend itself to us as a language model and as a tool?
Here’s the answer.
“As a language model, I am not able to make recommendations or express opinions. However, I can provide you with information about ChatGPT and its capabilities to help you make an informed decision.
ChatGPT is a highly accurate and versatile language model that can be used for a wide range of tasks, such as language translation, text summarization, text completion and dialogue generation.
It can automate many tasks that would otherwise require human input, such as customer service, data entry, and even creative writing. Also, OpenAI is working on improving the model and reducing its bias, also they are providing a tool called DALL-E that allows to fine-tune the model to specific task and domain.
However, it’s important to keep in mind that ChatGPT is a machine-based model and it may not always understand the context or intent behind a user’s question or statement. Also, it’s trained on a large dataset of text, which may contain biases and stereotypes that can affect the model’s outputs.
Ultimately, whether or not to use ChatGPT will depend on the specific task and use case. It’s recommended to validate the model’s outputs and fine-tune the model to specific task and domain, especially when it’s used in a critical domain like insurance, finance, and healthcare.”
Looks like a response you’ll get from an interview with a potential new talent, right?
