ChatGPT is booming over the internet and has drawn global attention since its release. This invention has put a big question mark on leading AI companies.
ChatGPT is one of the most compelling language models developed by OpenAI that uses deep learning techniques to discover and generate natural language. Because of its ability to generate human-like text, this ChatGPT is turned into a useful tool for a variety of applications such as conversation, Q&A, Language Translation, Chat, Text Conclusion, and so on. There can be numerous use cases for this OpenAI ChatGPT.

What is OpenAI?
ChatGPT is developed by OpenAI, a company. OpenAI is a research organization and technology company based in San Francisco, California. It was founded in 2015 by Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and others. The company's primary goal is to develop and promote friendly AI to benefit humanity. The board of OpenAI nonprofit and OpenAI LP employees governs OpenAI. The core investors of the company are Microsoft, Reid Hoffman's charitable foundation, and Khosla Ventures.
OpenAI has a few other AI products: DALL-E, OPenAI GPT- 3.5, OpenAI Codex, OpenAI Gym, OpenAI Five, etc. DALL-E is a new AI system that can create realistic images and art from a description in natural language. Similarly, OpenAI Codex is a deep reinforcement learning platform that enables developers to build intelligent applications that can generate, modify, correct, and optimize code.
What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is an AI chatbot that is one of the most popular products of OpenAI. This ChatGPT is a highly capable chatbot that uses GPT 3.5 (Generative Pretrained Transformer), which is beyond language processing. It uses deep learning techniques to understand and generate natural language, making it a useful tool for various applications such as language translation, text summarization, and conversation generation.
One of the main attractions of ChatGPT is the capability to produce Human-text, a more natural language. This AI is a work of intensive research. Training the model on a massive dataset of the written text led to uncovering the patterns and distinctions of human natural language. Furthermore, this achievement is well suited for the assignment, like predicting the next word or phrase based on the context of the text.
Another key feature of ChatGPT is the ability to understand the context of the conversation. This means we can ask follow-up questions and chat like humans, and you can ask anything.
It uses RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback). It was released with a free version (preview) earlier to collect feedback and learn about its strengths and weaknesses.
However, it can't produce video, sound, or images like its brother DALL-E 2, but instead has an in-depth understanding of the spoken and written word.
Why is ChatGPT so popular?
It is all over the internet, news, feeds, articles, and discussions. It has gained massive popularity within a few months. Why?
To begin with, this innovation is entirely novel, and we have never seen such AI capabilities earlier in any product or platform. Because it was one of the first AI technologies of its kind to be made available to the public in a way that people could understand. The primary key to this innovation is that it can understand the context and generate human-like text.
Accessibility is another key factor for its popularity. In other words, it was released with a preview version and was free for everyone therefore, it gained huge members within a few weeks. Still, it is free to use.
Furthermore, it is versatile. We can use ChatGPT to query from every domain. It is uncommon for any AI bot to respond from various domains within a few seconds. We can inquire about Health, Science and Mathematics, Computer Science, Coding, History, management, banking, telecommunications, and all the available domains and industries. It provides comprehensive and natural responses which humans can understand easily. This AI model has been trained with a massive dataset.
Another reason for its popularity is that it provides open API, OpenAI APIs, through which we can easily connect via any application and implement through standard HTTP requests. We can have huge applications and use cases where OpenAI can be beneficial.
Applications of OpenAI and ChatGPT
The applications and use cases with ChatGPT and OpenAI are immeasurable. Since this AI service is ingenious and can respond to our queries from any domain, we can implement it into any solution. A few examples are shared below.
Text completion
ChatGPT can predict the next word or phrase in a sentence based on the context of the text, making it useful for text completion tasks.
Language translation
ChatGPT can understand the context of a conversation, making it useful for language translation tasks.
Text summarization
ChatGPT can understand the context of a text, making it useful for text summarization tasks.
Code Creation/Modification/Error Detection
OpenAI and ChatGPT can generate code based on problems and scenarios. Furthermore, we can take advantage to modify and identify the error and faults in existing code.
Advanced Chatbots and virtual assistants
ChatGPT can be used to create advanced chatbots and virtual assistants that can understand and respond to natural language input in a human-like way. This can be used in various applications such as customer service, e-commerce, and entertainment.
Content creation
ChatGPT can generate text, making it useful for content creation tasks such as writing articles, stories, and even poetry. ChatGPT can be fine-tuned to identify and filter out harmful or inappropriate content from user-generated content, which can be useful for moderating comments and posts on social media platforms.
Sentiment Analysis
ChatGPT can be fine-tuned to perform sentiment analysis, which can help analyze customer feedback and social media posts.
Language model fine-tuning
ChatGPT can be fine-tuned on a specific task or industry for more accurate and relevant results.
Language model for other languages
OpenAI has also released multilingual models based on GPT, which can be fine-tuned for languages such as Spanish, French, German, Chinese, etc.
Educational purpose
ChatGPT can generate questions, summaries, and other educational material, making it useful for e-learning and educational applications.
Many use cases and examples are shared on their site.
https://platform.openai.com/examples/
We can click any of these examples and see the details, including the scenario, example, and sample API.
Example: Airport code extractor
It has an example scenario and a related prompt with a sample response. Furthermore, it has sample API implementation.
Sample API Request
How to use ChatGPT?
Still, we can use ChatGPT for free, and it is available to everyone, which is also one of the primary reasons for gaining its popularity.
Simply. Sign up, verify your email, and log in to use it.
https://chat.openai.com/auth/login
Let's try some queries and see the magic of AI.
Furthermore, we can continue the conversation with the Bot.
The responses from ChatGPT are comprehensive and natural, like humans. It is simple to understand, and we can follow up based on previous queries.
However, now we have the option to upgrade to pro.
You can click to enroll for ChatGPT Plus subscriptions.
How to Integrate OpenAI ChatGPT?
Using the OpenAI API is straightforward. We need to generate an API Key from our profile and call the API with authentication.
Log in and go to your profile to get the API Key, as shown below.
Then click >> Create a new secret key as shown:
We can easily call HTTP requests and get responses from OpenAI API with the API key. There are several ways to implement HTTP requests, and I have shared an example with .NET c#.
Sample code
public async Task < CompletionResponseDto > GetHttpResponseAsync(string prompt) {
try {
CompletionResponseDto completionResponse = new CompletionResponseDto();
CompletionRequestDto completionRequest = new CompletionRequestDto {
Model = _model,
Prompt = prompt,
MaxTokens = 120,
TopP = 0.3 f,
FrequencyPenalty = 0.5 f,
PresencePenalty = 0
};
using(HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient()) {
using(var httpReq = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Post, "https://api.openai.com/v1/completions")) {
httpReq.Headers.Add("Authorization", $ "Bearer {_apiKey}");
string requestString = JsonSerializer.Serialize(completionRequest);
httpReq.Content = new StringContent(requestString, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
using(HttpResponseMessage ? httpResponse = await httpClient.SendAsync(httpReq)) {
if (httpResponse is not null) {
if (httpResponse.IsSuccessStatusCode) {
string responseString = await httpResponse.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); {
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(responseString)) {
completionResponse = JsonSerializer.Deserialize < CompletionResponseDto > (responseString);
}
}
}
}
return completionResponse;
}
}
}
} catch (Exception) {
throw;
}
}
