OpenAI Pioneering The Realm of AI
The introduction of ChatGPT last year gaslighted companies to develop and build different AI businesses and models following the sudden global craze over AI and technology. This sudden drift towards the development of AI is constantly pushing tech giants to skyrocket their growths and developments when it comes to AI.
Earlier this year, OpenAI reintroduced its AI chatbot tool ChatGPT, adding features to amplify its appeal to individuals and enterprise users. The AI tool that was limited to 2021 data only now includes a real-time web browsing feature on its groundbreaking AI tool, ChatGPT. The upgraded version of ChatGPT, initially rolled out in May 2023, soon collapsed due to concerns over bypassing online paywalls. However, the upgraded version was re-launched with the feature re-instated into the system. OpenAI gradually made advancements by respecting website permissions, eventually proving beneficial for all stakeholders.
