CHAT GPT AND AI CHALLENGES

 

General Studies Paper-3: (Science and Technology)

Reference:

  • Recently launched, What is Chat GPT, how it will impact the careers of a large number of people

What is Chat GPT:

  • It is a versatile artificial intelligence tool.
  • It is a generative pre train transformer language model.
  • It was launched by Open AI in November 2022 as a chatbot.
  • The main function of a chatbot is to mimic human dialogue.
  • It can understand the words written in the search box and give answers in formats like article, table, news article, poem.

Its main functions:

  • Like other language models, it generates human-like text based on the input it receives.
  • It generates detailed responses to various prompts and questions.
  • It helps in imitating speech patterns while transmitting lexical knowledge.
  • It is a computer program that can understand and "talk" to the user in a way that is almost identical to interacting with a real human.
  • It knows about 175 billion pieces of information like a knowledgeable person and is able to recall any of them instantly.
  • It can write computer programs for composing music, teleplays, fairy tales and student essays and can also correct program errors.

Security measures provided by Open AI:

  • Open AI has incorporated some strong security measures in principle to prevent its use for malicious purposes.
  • Filters content to look for phrases that suggest someone may be trying to use it as such.
  • Attempt to connect with other tech companies:
  • Other tech companies such as Google and Meta have developed their own large language model tools, which use programs that take in human cues and generate sophisticated responses.
  • Microsoft is integrating Chat GPT with its search engine and other products.

Importance of Chat GPT:

Increasing Productivity:

  • Chat GPT implementation can help businesses improve their efficiency, thereby providing better and faster service to their customers.

 

Low cost:

  • Providing support and customer service using Chat GPT can be accomplished at a very reasonable cost.
  • Having Chat GPT will allow businesses to employ less number of customer service personnel to handle customer enquiries, which in turn will reduce the overhead cost of the firm.

Enhanced Accuracy:

  • As more data is collected and the model is fine-tuned on specific tasks, both the accuracy of the generated text and its coherence are expected to increase.
  • Quick Responses:
  • With ChatGPT you can be sure of quick responses. GPT can quickly respond to incoming messages. This makes real-time conversations easy.

Support for Different Languages:

  • ChatGPT is beneficial for individuals and businesses who want to communicate with speakers of other languages, as OpenAI operates on a model that supports multiple languages.

Will Chat GPT Affect the Career of People:

  • This will not affect people's career as AI system can perform some tasks in higher capacity than human brain but it does not have understanding and creativity like humans.

Limitations:

Like other language models, Chat-GPT has some limitations:

No Internet Access:

  • Chat-GPT and other language models do not have access to the Internet or external information, so it can only respond based on the information it has been trained on.
  • This means that they are not able to provide accurate information about current events or recent developments.

Not a perfect tool:

  • Language models may not always generate responses that are completely coherent or make sense in the context of the conversation.
  • Open AI acknowledged that Chat GPT "sometimes writes answers that sound believable but are incorrect or nonsensical".

Limit of Understanding:

  • Another limitation of language models is that they do not have the ability to understand or interpret the meaning of words and phrases in the same way that humans do.
  • They are able to generate text based only on patterns and relationships learned from their training data.
  • This means that they may not always be able to give nuanced or sophisticated responses to more complex or abstract questions.

Limited Knowledge:

  • Chat GPT has limited information on events after 2021.
  • According to the BBC, as of December 2022, ChatGPT is not allowed to "express political opinion or engage in political activism".

Challenges:

Impact in various areas:

  • The AI revolution is likely to have serious implications for labour, education, the authenticity of content and its authorship.
  • There are also fears that people's careers may be affected in the years to come, as AI becomes more ubiquitous and sophisticated.

Lack of security measures:

  • There are no parallel safeguards for this innovation in education, regulatory and labor codes.

Lack of Policy:

  • Lack of technology innovation policy to control data theft and social media.

Conclusion:

  • It is like a learning model that can only respond as well as the data feed into it. Or the data it has been trained on. If there are biases in the trained data, they can also be seen in the answers to the related questions. Since it does not have the same intelligence as the human brain, ChatGPT must check its contents before using it.
