What is AI and its introduction?
Artificial intelligence (AI), refers to the creation of intelligent machines that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and language translation. These machines can be programmed to learn from experience, adjust to new data inputs, and perform complex tasks without being explicitly programmed to do so. AI has numerous applications across various sectors, including healthcare, finance, transportation, customer service, marketing, education, manufacturing, gaming, and others.
AI chatbot named ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer) was created by OpenAI and released in November 2021. GPT-3.5 served as the foundation for ChatGPT’s initial release. On March 14, 2023, a version based on GPT-4, the most recent OpenAI model, was made accessible to premium subscribers temporarily. ChatGPT secured 100 Mn users globally in February 2023. By the end of the year 2024, OpenAI expects its revenue to increase to USD 1 Bn. With a training set of around 170 trillion parameters, GPT 4 is expected to be 500 times stronger than GPT 3, making it the most potent AI engine yet created.
