ChatGPT is quickly becoming a global phenomenon, breaking records and — to some extent — hearts along its path to the top.
Google co-founder, Larry Page, once speculated that artificial intelligence would be the ultimate version of the search engine, with the ability to understand everything on the web. This is what ChatGPT is proving.
If you are the kind of person that wants things done based on your instructions, this could be your ideal companion. Of course you ought to note that the tool does not use short codes like Microsoft Word. It uses natural language processing techniques to understand and generate human-like text.
You can interact with ChatGPT by typing out your questions or requests in full sentences; and to some extent, it can understand and respond to slang. However, it is trained on a large corpus of text that includes many forms of language, including formal and informal language, so its understanding of slang may not always be accurate.
Here are 10 or even more things that you can use ChatGPT for, in your daily activity.
Generate human-like text responses
There are always situations that might require you to have an answer readily available to a variety of questions. In such times, when words seem to fail you, ChatGPT always comes handy.
The tool can generate text that mimics human writing, making it useful for customer service, creative writing, or chatbot applications. For instance, if you have no answer to questions like: “What are your salary expectations?”
It canalso respond to questions by taking into account the context in which they are asked, thus being of help for customer service or support-related applications.
Provide information on a wide range of topics
You don’t need an encyclopedia when you have ChatGPT. The tool has access to a vast amount of information on many topics, allowing it to provide answers to questions on various subjects.
You can take time to learn more about historical events, with clear timelines and specific dates attached. I found it interesting that it can tell the list of US Presidents that tried standing for other electoral posts after their time in office but failed to win.
Translate text from one language to another
You don’t have to struggle with language barriers. ChatGPT can translate text from one language to another, making it useful for you as an individual or for businesses that communicate with people who speak different languages. Whether it’s Chinese, Spanish, or Swahili. You are ready to be served.
The tool can also communicate in multiple languages, making it useful for global customer service or multilingual support.
Answer mathematical and scientific questions
ChatGPT can answer mathematical and scientific questions. You don’t have to worry about lacking a calculator. This makes it handy and useful to students, teachers, or anyone looking for quick answers to these types of questions.
Summarize long texts into a concise format
It can summarize long texts into a shorter and more manageable format, making it useful for those who need to quickly understand the main points of a text. You simply just have to paste the long form you wish to have summarized, then it will generate the summary points.
Respond to questions about current events
It is not just the historical events that ChatGPT can relate with. The tool also does have access to current information, allowing it to answer questions about current events and news. So, if you are in the need for an update on an ongoing topic, or a news trend in the past few years — you are at home!
Predict stock prices
It can analyze stock market data and make predictions about stock prices, something rendered very useful for financial traders or investors.
Provide recommendations for products or services
The tool can provide personalized recommendations for products or services based on user preferences, essential for e-commerce applications.
Predict the sentiment of a text
ChatGPT can analyze the sentiment of a text, such as whether it is positive, negative, or neutral, making it useful for social media monitoring, market research, or sentiment analysis.
Facilitate or participate in group discussions
It can facilitate or participate in group discussions, especially for online forums, support groups, or virtual meetings.
