ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot developed by the OpenAI has taken the tech world by surprise. With its tremendous feature, it has reshaped how humans interact with AI. While many fear that this could eventually replace human employees, others recognize the potential of ChatGPT in saving time and money, as well as in unleashing creativity. One such person is Akash Nigam, an Indian-origin CEO and founder of Genies, a tech company worth $1 billion that provides tools to create personalized avatars for apps. Impressed by the features of ChatGPT, he decided to buy the premium version of the chatbot and provide subscriptions to all 120 employees in order to maximize productivity and profits in a blink of an eye.
The chatbot was able to rapidly boost the performance of the Research and Development team with Sci-math calculations, debugging guidance, and creating scripts for presentations. Apart from that, it was also able to assist with creating creative briefs, drafting internal policies, and answering technical queries. Furthermore, by utilizing the ChatGPT, Akash was able to create a technical roadmap which usually requires hours and hours of brainstorming.
Moreover, he has declared to use ChatGPT usage as part of the employee reviews. He aspires to find out whether the employees are making use of this AI-powered tool to ‘effectively accelerate’ the process and maximize the productivity.
This concept of leveraging the AI tools isn’t peculiar to Nigam’s company. Amazon employees are using AI tools to automate code writing, customer queries, and training documents. In the same vein, other companies such as Pure Fusion Media and Microsoft are also making use of ChatGPT to reduce their hours of work.
