About ChatGPT

ChatGPT is a large language model-based chatbot developed by OpenAI. It was launched on November 30, 2022. It is notable for enabling users to refine and steer a conversation towards a desired length, format, style, level of detail, and language used. Successive prompts and replies, known as prompt engineering, are taken into account at each stage of the conversation as a context.

ChatGPT is built upon GPT-3.5 and GPT-4—members of OpenAI’s proprietary generative pre-trained transformer series of transformer models—which are then fine-tuned for conversational applications using a combination of supervised and reinforcement learning techniques.

ChatGPT was released as a freely available research preview, but due to its popularity, OpenAI now operates the service on a freemium model. It allows users on its free tier to access the GPT-3.5 based version, while the more advanced GPT-4 based version, as well as priority access to newer features, are provided to paid subscribers under the commercial name “ChatGPT Plus”.
