ChatGPT is an advanced language model developed by OpenAI that uses state-of-the-art machine-learning techniques to generate human-like text. It is one of the largest and most sophisticated language models in existence, with 1.5 billion parameters, and has been trained on a diverse range of internet texts to understand and replicate natural language. ChatGPT is designed to understand and generate text in natural language, including grammar, syntax, and semantics. It can be used for a wide range of applications, including generating conversational responses, summarizing long texts, answering questions, and even creating original content. ChatGPT can be fine-tuned for specific tasks by training it on domain-specific data, making it a versatile tool for many different use cases.

Feb 10 (Reuters) - Generative AI models such as ChatGPT will slow down market share gains and deflate pricing for Indian IT companies in the short term, analysts at J.P.Morgan said on Friday. As generative AI is implemented more broadly, consulting firms like Accenture and Deloitte and will gain market share over Indian IT firms like Infosys Ltd (INFY.NS) and Wipro Ltd (WIPR.NS) in the near term, analysts at the brokerage said in a note to clients. Generative AI can be a "deflation driver" in the near term on legacy services as they compete on pricing, necessitate staff retraining and drive loss of competitiveness, they added. "ChatGPT is likely to deflate legacy services the most and application services the least." Artificial intelligence company OpenAI's chatbot has dazzled amateurs and industry experts with its ability to spit out haikus, debug code and answer questions while imitating human speech, helping it attract a $10 billion investment from Microsoft Inc (MSFT.O) earlier this month.

In a rather unsurprising turn of events, former director of AI at Tesla, Andrej Karpathy, has rejoined OpenAI. In his tweet announcing the transition, he said that the developments in AI are inspiring and having benefitted from them, he finds it exciting to "jump back and build". Having been one of the founding members of OpenAI, Andrej left the company in 2017 to join Tesla and support Elon Musk in his endeavours. Musk was also one of the co-founders of OpenAI initially but had later left the Board member position in 2018 "to avoid future conflicts of interests due to Tesla developing AI", OpenAI said. At Tesla, Karpathy undertook multiple AI endeavours and, perhaps most importantly, was his work with Elon Musk on creating "Optimus", the humanoid robot whose prototype was unveiled on AI Day, 30 October, 2022.

OpenAI's ChatGPT took the world by storm, quickly amassing over 100 million active users in January alone. This is the fastest any application has ever grown to this size, with the prior two record keepers being TikTok at 9 months and Instagram at 2.5 years. The top question on everyone's mind is how disruptive large language models (LLMs) will be for search. Microsoft rocked the world this week with their Bing announcement, incorporating OpenAI's technology into search. This new Bing will make Google come out and dance, and I want people to know that we made them dance.

The arrival of OpenAI's ChatGPT and generative AI only a few years after the hype cycle over the metaverse has attracted both the AI bulls and bears as tech pursues its next big thing. The metaverse came with NFTs, an extension of cryptocurrencies and the blockchain, and for now, it's all looking like the hype cycle warning is a good thing to heed. One thing is certain: Silicon Valley needs a next big thing, as the industry is seeing a contraction unlike anything it has experienced over the past decade, with tech leading layoffs in the economy and cost-cutting now the norm for the one sector which has been accustomed to operating with a blank check from investors. At a CNBC Technology Executive Council virtual Town Hall on Thursday, we gathered technology executives at companies across the economy -- specifically, many at companies using AI but not creating it, for example, in retail, media, legal, agriculture and logistics. We gathered a roughly equal number of AI enthusiasts and skeptics, and broke them up into groups to discuss the sudden explosion of interest in ChatGPT, and to separate as best as they could the hype from the reality.

Microsoft reportedly plans to introduce upgraded Office apps with AI features in the coming weeks. According to The Verge, the tech giant is preparing to show what its Prometheus AI technology and OpenAI's language AI can do for Word, PowerPoint, Outlook and other Microsoft 365 apps as soon as this March. Microsoft recently launched a reimagined Bing that can generate conversational responses to search queries, thanks to the Prometheus model, which was built with the help of OpenAI. Additionally, the company introduced a new Edge with a built-in "AI copilot" that's also powered by Prometheus. A button on the top-right corner gives users quick access to Bing's new chat feature, and as we mentioned in our hands-on, it's like having ChatGPT right in your browser.

Within weeks of its launch, OpenAI's ChatGPT triggered a new global race in artificial intelligence. The chatbot is part of a fresh wave of so-called generative AI--sophisticated systems that produce content from text to images--that is set to be one of the most disruptive forces in a decade to Big Tech, industries and the future of work. Microsoft Corp. has added the technology to its products, including search engine Bing, while competitors Google and Baidu are pushing to launch similar tools. Despite its sudden burst in popularity, the technology currently has serious limitations and potential risks that include spewing misinformation and infringing on intellectual property.

Check out all the on-demand sessions from the Intelligent Security Summit here. Aidan Gomez, cofounder and CEO of Cohere AI, admits that the company, which offers developers and businesses access to natural language processing (NLP) powered by large language models (LLMs), is "crazy under the radar." Given the quality of the company's foundation models, which many say are competitive with the best from Google, OpenAI and others, that shouldn't be the case, he told VentureBeat. But Cohere, he emphasizes, has been "squarely focused on the enterprise and how we can add value there." In any case, the Toronto-based Cohere, founded in 2019 by Gomez, Ivan Zhang and Nick Frosst, may not remain unnoticed for long.

Technological breakthroughs in the U.S. never fail to inspire challengers, followers and opportunists in China. It's ChatGPT's turn to capture the imagination of the world's largest internet population. On WeChat, ChatGPT's "trending index," an indicator of a keyword's popularity on the social network, rose 155 folds within the last 30 days. It's fascinating to watch how OpenAI's powerful language model sparks great interest among the country's tech giants, startups and ordinary people, not least because it offers a lens to understand the state of the AI race between two superpowers. Unlike many other major Western internet platforms, the ChatGPT site isn't blocked in China, yet.
