What is ChatGPT? I asked the buzzy artificial intelligence chatbot, which has ignited
conversation in schools, corporate boardrooms and social media, to explain itself.
In its own description, ChatGPT is “an AI-powered chatbot developed by OpenAI,
based on the GPT (Generative Pretrained Transformer) language model. It uses
deep learning techniques to generate human-like responses to text inputs in a
conversational manner.”
The tool is the talk of the business world. It has been mentioned on earnings calls by
management from a range of companies including oil giants, banks — and even the
industrial behemoth Caterpillar.
It has also sparked concerns over potential abuses. In classrooms, students have
used ChatGPT to generate entire essays, while hackers have begun testing it to
write malicious code.
So what is ChatGPT, exactly? Here’s a simple guide on all you need to know about
the popular AI chatbot.

What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is an AI chatbot developed by San Francisco-based startup OpenAI.
OpenAI was co-founded in 2015 by Elon Musk and Sam Altman and is backed by
well-known investors — most notably Microsoft.
It is one of several examples of generative AI. These are tools that allow users to
enter written prompts and receive new human-like text or images and videos
generated by the AI.
Prior examples include Dall-E, a text-to-image program from OpenAI that garnered
attention from people captivated by its ability to come up with realistic, often absurd,
pictures that match people’s text descriptions.
Lensa, an app based on open-source AI project Stable Diffusion, has been used to
turn selfies into illustrious self-portraits inspired by everything from sci-fi to anime.
In ChatGPT’s case, the service is a text-based tool that can produce human-like
responses to user requests — from poetry in the style of William Shakespeare to
advice on what to do for a child’s birthday party.
