Introduction
Artificial Intelligence has been around for a while, and has helped in making human lives easier. They look like such big words, but are almost in everything we do, from computers doing our calculations, data manipulations, giving Siri instructions, Alexa at the corner to turn on lights ,Google language translations, to mention a few. Humans can do all those things, but computers can do it faster and sometimes better. We interact with Artificial Intelligence daily from Google searches to Facebook, and now ChatGpt.


WHAT IS CHAPGPT AND WHAT CAN IT DO?
If you’ve spent much time online over the last few weeks, there has been a rave on ChatGpt. What is it all about? CHATGPT (Generative pre-trained transformer) is a form of Artificial Intelligence, developed by OpenAI, the same company responsible for the popular AI image generator DALL-E. ChatGPT is a conversational Artificial Intelligence chatbot that can answer just about any question you throw at it. It can answer questions in any field. Science, mathematics, religion, sports, politics—you name it. It is based on the autoregressive language model GPT-3, it is considered a large language model bot, and has a fantastic ability to deliver surprisingly human responses to various queries.


THE “SUPER POWERS”OF CHAPGPT ACROSS VARIOUS PEOPLE AND PROFESSIONS?
1 To the creative: The ChatGpt can create topics across various fields. This can help in areas not known, complicated or even throwing more light on areas known. It comes up with different writing styles, genres and can even mimic existing author styles. However, while the results can definitely be helpful to creatives in helping them flesh out their own ideas, there are still significant issues with shallowness, repetitiveness, and language that doesn’t always flow naturally. Working hand in hand with this bot, makes it a win -win. It is essential to take the time to verify any information the bot delivers before you use it.

2 To the student: For a generation that is used to instant answers, the ChatGpt can help students provide quick answers to assignments, admissions, math problems, lesson plans and monitor students learning progress, to give feedbacks.

3 To the Tech enthusiast: ChatGpt can help to write and explain codes. As a new bee or experienced programmer, you are still bound to run into bug problems, you can also write entire blocks of functional code snippets from scratch. However, deploying ChatGpt code to a production server might not be an entirely great idea.

4 To the one preparing for a job interview: The ChatGpt is well versed in various fields, and would be a companion for one preparing for an interview. You can use it to generate possible interview questions, and also answers to such questions, answered intelligently.

5 To the one who needs relationship advise: As an Artificial Intelligence system, the ChatGpt does not understand emotions, but it can still proffer advice on how to manage relationships with family, friends, co-workers and loved ones.

6 To the legal practitioner: The ChatGpt can be used to generate legal language from a given set of facts, predict the likely outcome of a case, or generate legal opinion. It can help lawyers enhance their productivity, organization and precision. This AI bot could be used for tasks such as legal research, legal writing and contract review. The ChatGpt is still in development and thus subject to inaccuracies in its response. It is not a human lawyer and lacks the nuance to give consistent responses attributable to a lawyer.

LIMITATIONS OF CHATGPT
Lack of emotional intelligence: While ChatGPT can generate responses that seem empathetic; it does not possess true emotional intelligence which humans have.

Limited knowledge: Although ChatGPT has access to a large amount of information; it is not able to access all of the knowledge that humans have. Also, it may not be able to answer questions about very specific topics, and it may not be aware of recent developments or changes in certain fields.
Limitations in understanding context: If a user were to use humor or sarcasm, the ChatGbt may fail to pick up on that, and may provide an answer that is irrelevant or unrelated.

IS CHATGPT FREE?
Currently, ChatGPT is still in its research preview period, you can use Chat GPT for free straight from OpenAI’s website. OpenAI wants people to use it and provide valuable feedback needed to improve the program further. Open AI is most likely using your interactions with the AI to improve the service and gather more data on how humans communicate, to fine-tune the model even further. It is unlikely to stay free forever.
