Creating a Stir: ChatGPT starts an exciting new conversation

The field of artificial intelligence (AI) has developed rapidly and surpassed many human capabilities. AI-powered applications such as chatbots, natural language processing and machine learning (ML) have found applications in diverse sectors. While the roots of AI go back many years, of late there have been many rapid developments. The most recent, and notable, of these has been the introduction of a downloadable web application that acts as a chatbot for people searching for information. The unique search engine, launched on November 30, 2022 by OpenAI, is called "ChatGPT" or "Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer", the third iteration of the Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT-3) platform.
