Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates said Friday that he believes the popular chatbot, ChatGPT, will “change the world.”
The 67-year-old said in an effort to promote GBT chat, which has become a hot topic since its launch in late November, that the smart chatbot will make many office functions more efficient.
GBT Chat provides amazingly human-like responses, answering follow-up questions, acknowledging mistakes, challenging incorrect assumptions, and rejecting inappropriate commands. It can also write poems, code commands, and much more.
Gates said in interview With German Handelsblatt: “So far, AI can read and write, but it cannot understand the content. New software such as GPT Chat will make many office jobs more efficient by helping to write invoices or letters. This will change our world.”
During the summer of 2022, Gates met with Greg Brockman, president and co-founder of OpenAI, to review some upcoming AI products.
