What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is all the rage recently, but what is it, how can you use it, and who made it?
If you've used the internet at all in the last couple of months, you've probably heard of ChatGPT. Like Googles's Gemini and Microsoft Copilot, it's a chatbot powered by natural language processing advancements and has been trained on vast swathes of internet data. You can ask it a question, and it will give you an answer, though the authenticity of the information in the answer that it gives you is sometimes questionable. The public, free version of ChatGPT is based on GPT-3.5, though you can pay for a ChatGPT Plus subscription and get access to GPT-4 for $20 per month.

Artificial Intelligence is all the rage right now due to the proliferation of image and text generators like Stable Diffusion and ChatGPT. Many see these tools as a threat to their jobs, and for many people, that might be correct. However, it's also not necessarily unprecedented. As more and more jobs are automated, the job pool shrinks. But the bigger problem will likely come not from fewer jobs being available but the changes multiple industries will end up going through.
