Open AI Announces ChatGPT


Though not strictly speaking directly related to photography or even to AI imaging, Open AI's newest release ChatGPT nevertheless has great relevance to the subject matter of this blog inasmuch as it calls attention to the extent to which AI is revolutionizing 21st century technology.  Already there are those who are predicting that the app will replace Google Chrome in the very near future.

Essentially, ChatGPT is a natural language processing (NLP) model, which is really just another way of saying that it is an AI app that works in conversational mode.  One can thus ask it questions in everyday language and get answers that are for the most part correct, though subject to a number of limitations that are listed in the link above.  It is this ability to interact with AI through ordinary conversation that makes the app so attractive that it has already acquired more than one million users.

All that is required to begin using ChatGPT is an Open AI account, for which many including myself have already signed up in order to have access to DALL-E 2.  I will begin experimenting with the new app in coming days and am excited to learn what it has to offer and what new possibilities it will make available.
