Abstract

In November 2022, Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT) released by OpenAI attracted worldwide attention as soon as it was released. Both artificial intelligence practitioners and the public are scrambling to try this latest chatbot. This paper mainly studies what ChatGPT is, and the remarkable characteristics of ChatGPT compared with other chatbots, as well as the prospect and limitations of ChatGPT. The main purpose of writing this paper is to provide some references for students or practitioners in the direction of artificial intelligence, and to make people who do not know ChatGPT and other large-scale language chat models more systematic understanding. The latest large-scale language model ChatGPT is studied by literature analysis and summary. This paper finds that although ChatGPT has indeed brought shock to the global people in the field of machine learning in the field of artificial intelligence, the hidden dangers and defects behind it (academic integrity, privacy, etc.) are gradually exposed, and relevant practitioners still need to propose measures to improve and develop new uses of chatbots.
