Everyone Is Impressed By The Most Powerful AI - ChatGPT
ChatGPT, a new chatbot model by OpenAI, has gone viral due to its high-quality answers, efficient access to information, and addictive interactive experience.
Many who experienced it claimed that ChatGPT could immediately replace journalists, programmers, and search engines. Even Musk tweeted that "ChatGPT is scary good and we're not far from dangerous and powerful AI."
After its launch on November 30, ChatGPT has quickly become immensely popular for almost everyone. This AI tool has set a new record after reaching the million-user mark in the fastest time (five days) in December. After the launch of ChatGPT Plus for $20 a month yesterday, OpenAI got another big boost as ChatGPT accumulated 100 million monthly active users.
Notably, ChatGPT hit this number of active users in merely 2 months after its launch, becoming the fastest-growing consumer app in history. To reach the same amount of users, it took TikTok nine months while Instagram took two and a half years, according to Sensor Tower. The time may be even much longer for other major players such as iTunes, Twitter, and WhatsApp. Another study, based on data from analytics firm Similarweb, demonstrates a daily average of 13 million unique visitors in January, more than double the number in December 2022.
Many users have stayed up all night chatting with ChatGPT to find out what it can do. When tested, ChatGPT seemed like an all-purpose warrior that could talk, write code, fix bugs, act as a smart speaker, and more.
Although ChatGPT sparked a lot of discussions online, it failed to be accepted by everyone. The International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML) banned submissions to papers generated by ChatGPT. Nature also expressly stated that ChatGPT could not be the author of the article. What's more, some educational institutions in the U.S. have blocked access to ChatGPT on their networks and devices due to concerns that AI tools could disrupt education.
However, a series of bans has not reduced ChatGPT's momentum. Starting in 2023, Microsoft is in talks to invest $10 billion in OpenAI. The company behind ChatGPT says it plans to integrate ChatGPT into Bing, which will allow users to personalize some of their searches directly. This will inevitably drive the promotion and development of ChatGPT.
In fact, ChatGPT has been a trending topic recently. However, it's only been a little over two months since its release. People need to have a more comprehensive understanding of it. As it continues to update, ChatGPT's future will be even more surprising.
