ChatGPT is a sophisticated artificial intelligence chatbot developed by OpenAI that can answer questions posed to it in natural language. It is remarkably simple to use it, available for free, and provides accurate responses. This has made ChatGPT a popular choice for users who want an intelligible and accurate conversational AI. OpenAI is also behind DALL-E, an AI used to generate digital art images, and Codex, used by projects like GitHub. It is important to note that, as proprietary software, ChatGPT is likely scraping web data in order to respond to inquiries – meaning data posted to the Internet may be used by the AI. This has implications for attorneys since private data may be made public and exploited. Any party entering this field must draft ironclad terms of use, privacy policies and disclaimer statements to protect their data.
