Everything you need to know about the AI chatbot

Published

on

ChatGPT, OpenAI’s text-generating AI chatbot, has taken the world by storm since its launch in November 2022. What started as a tool to supercharge productivity through writing essays and code with short text prompts has evolved into a behemoth with 300 million weekly active users.

2024 was a big year for OpenAI, from its partnership with Apple for its generative AI offering, Apple Intelligence, the release of GPT-4o with voice capabilities, and the highly-anticipated launch of its text-to-video model Sora.

OpenAI closed the year with “12 Days of OpenAI,” a series of 12 streams highlighting new product reveals and features. The event included the aforementioned Sora model, the rollout of real-time vision capabilities in Advanced Voice Mode, as well as a preview of its new “reasoning” model family: o3 and o3-mini. You can revisit all the announcements on our live blog.

It wasn’t all big feature rollouts and model reveals though. OpenAI faced internal drama this year, including sizable exits of high-level execs like co-founder and longtime chief scientist Ilya Sutskever and CTO Mira Murati. OpenAI has also been hit with lawsuits from Alden Global Capital-owned newspapers alleging copyright infringement, as well as an injunction from Elon Musk to halt OpenAI’s transition to a for-profit.

Below, you’ll find a timeline of ChatGPT product updates and releases, starting with the latest, which we’ve been updating throughout the year. If you have any other questions, check out our ChatGPT FAQ here.

Timeline of the most recent ChatGPT updates

January 2025

OpenAI launches ChatGPT plan for US government agencies

OpenAI launched ChatGPT Gov designed to provide U.S. government agencies an additional way to access the tech. ChatGPT Gov includes many of the capabilities found in OpenAI’s corporate-focused tier, ChatGPT Enterprise. OpenAI says that ChatGPT Gov enables agencies to more easily manage their own security, privacy, and compliance, and could expedite internal authorization of OpenAI’s tools for the handling of non-public sensitive data.

More teens report using ChatGPT for schoolwork, despite the tech’s faults

Younger Gen Zers are embracing ChatGPT, for schoolwork, according to a new survey by the Pew Research Center. In a follow-up to its 2023 poll on ChatGPT usage among young people, Pew asked ~1,400 U.S.-based teens ages 13 to 17 whether they’ve used ChatGPT for homework or other school-related assignments. Twenty-six percent said that they had, double the number two years ago. Just over half of teens responding to the poll said they think it’s acceptable to use ChatGPT for researching new subjects. But considering the ways ChatGPT can fall short, the results are possibly cause for alarm.

OpenAI says it may store deleted Operator data for up to 90 days

OpenAI says that it might store chats and associated screenshots from customers who use Operator, the company’s AI “agent” tool, for up to 90 days — even after a user manually deletes them. While OpenAI has a similar deleted data retention policy for ChatGPT, the retention period for ChatGPT is only 30 days, which is 60 days shorter than Operator’s.

OpenAI launches Operator, an AI agent that performs tasks autonomously

OpenAI is launching a research preview of Operator, a general-purpose AI agent that can take control of a web browser and independently perform certain actions. Operator promises to automate tasks such as booking travel accommodations, making restaurant reservations, and shopping online.

OpenAI may preview its agent tool for users on the $200-per-month Pro plan

Operator, OpenAI’s agent tool, could be released sooner rather than later. Changes to ChatGPT’s code base suggest that Operator will be available as an early research preview to users on the $200 Pro subscription plan. The changes aren’t yet publicly visible, but a user on X who goes by Choi spotted these updates in ChatGPT’s client-side code. TechCrunch separately identified the same references to Operator on OpenAI’s website.

OpenAI tests phone number-only ChatGPT signups

OpenAI has begun testing a feature that lets new ChatGPT users sign up with only a phone number — no email required. The feature is currently in beta in the U.S. and India. However, users who create an account using their number can’t upgrade to one of OpenAI’s paid plans without verifying their account via an email. Multi-factor authentication also isn’t supported without a valid email.

ChatGPT now lets you schedule reminders and recurring tasks

ChatGPT’s new beta feature, called tasks, allows users to set simple reminders. For example, you can ask ChatGPT to remind you when your passport expires in six months, and the AI assistant will follow up with a push notification on whatever platform you have tasks enabled. The feature will start rolling out to ChatGPT Plus, Team, and Pro users around the globe this week.

New ChatGPT feature lets users assign it traits like ‘chatty’ and ‘Gen Z’

OpenAI is introducing a new way for users to customize their interactions with ChatGPT. Some users found they can specify a preferred name or nickname and “traits” they’d like the chatbot to have. OpenAI suggests traits like “Chatty,” “Encouraging,” and “Gen Z.” However, some users reported that the new options have disappeared, so it’s possible they went live prematurely.

December 2024

ChatGPT Search can be tricked into misleading users, new research reveals

ChatGPT Search can be fooled into generating completely misleading summaries, The Guardian has found. They found ChatGPT could be prompted to ignore negative reviews and generate “entirely positive” summaries by inserting hidden text into websites it created and that ChatGPT Search could also be made to spit out malicious code using this method.

Microsoft and OpenAI reportedly have a finance-centric definition of AGI

Microsoft and OpenAI have a very specific, internal definition of AGI based on the startup’s profits, according to a new report from The Information. The two companies reportedly signed an agreement stating OpenAI has only achieved AGI when it develops AI systems that can generate at least $100 billion in profit, which is far from the rigorous technical and philosophical definition of AGI many would expect.

OpenAI trained o1 and o3 to ‘think’ about its safety policy

OpenAI released new research outlining the company’s approach to ensure AI reasoning models stay aligned with the values of their human developers. The startup used “deliberative alignment” to make o1 and o3 “think” about OpenAI’s safety policy. According to OpenAI’s research, the method decreased the rate at which o1 answered “unsafe” questions while improving its ability to answer benign ones.

OpenAI announces new o3 reasoning models

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced the successors to its o1 reasoning model family: o3 and o3-mini. The models are not widely available yet, but safety researchers can sign up for a preview. The reveal marks the end of the “12 Days of OpenAI” event, which saw announcements for real-time vision capabilities, ChatGPT Search, and even a Santa voice for ChatGPT. 

OpenAI brings ChatGPT to your landline

In an effort to make ChatGPT accessible to as many people as possible, OpenAI announced a 1-800 number to call the chatbot — even from a landline or a flip phone. Users can call 1-800-CHATGPT, and ChatGPT will respond to your queries in an experience that is more or less identical to Advanced Voice Mode — minus the multimodality.

OpenAI is offering 15 minutes of free calling for U.S. users. The company notes that standard carrier fees may apply.

OpenAI brings its ChatGPT Search to more users

OpenAI is bringing ChatGPT Search to free, logged in users. Search gives ChatGPT the ability to access real-time information on the web to better answer your queries, but was only available for paid users when it launched in October. Not only is Search available now for free users, but it’s also been integrated into Advanced Voice Mode.

OpenAI blames massive ChatGPT outage on a ‘new telemetry service’

OpenAI is blaming one of the longest outages in its history on a “new telemetry service” gone awry. OpenAI wrote in a postmortem that the outage wasn’t caused by a security incident or recent product launch, but by a telemetry service it deployed to collect Kubernetes metrics.

You can make ChatGPT sound like Santa for a limited time

OpenAI announced that ChatGPT users could access a new “Santa Mode” voice during December. The feature allows users to speak with ChatGPT’s Advanced Voice Mode, but with a Christmas twist. The voice sounds, well, “merry and bright,” as OpenAI described it. Think boomy, jolly — more or less like every Santa you’ve ever heard.

OpenAI adds vision to Advanced Voice Mode

OpenAI released the real-time video capabilities for ChatGPT that it demoed nearly seven months ago. ChatGPT Plus, Team, and Pro subscribers can use the app to point their phones at objects and have ChatGPT respond in near-real-time. The feature can also understand what’s on a device’s screen through screen sharing.

There’s more to come from OpenAI through December 23. Tune in to our live blog to stay updated.

ChatGPT and Sora hit with a major outage

ChatGPT and Sora both experienced a major outage Wednesday. Though users suspected the outage was due to the rollout of ChatGPT in Apple Intelligence, OpenAI developer community lead Edwin Arbus denied it in a post on X, saying the “outage was unrelated to 12 Days of OpenAI or Apple Intelligence. We made a config change that caused many servers to become unavailable.”

Canvas rolls out to everyone

Canvas, OpenAI’s collaboration-focused interface for writing and code projects, is now rolling out to all users after being in beta for ChatGPT Plus members since October 2024. The company also announced the ability to integrate Python code within Canvas as well as bringing Canvas to custom GPTs.

OpenAI pauses Sora sign-ups due to high demand

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman posted on X that due to higher than expected demand, they are pausing new sign-ups for its video generator Sora and that video generations will be slower for the time being. The company released Sora as part of its “12 Days of OpenAI” event following nearly a year of teasing the product.

OpenAI releases Sora for ChatGPT Plus and Pro subscribers

OpenAI has finally released its text to video model, Sora. The model can generate videos up to 20 seconds long in 1080p based on text prompts or uploaded images, and can be “remixed” through additional user prompts. Sora is available starting today to ChatGPT Pro and Plus subscribers (except in the EU). 

In Monday’s “12 Days of OpenAI” livestream, CEO Sam Altman said that ChatGPT Plus members will get 50 video generations a month, while ChatGPT Pro users will get “unlimited” generations in their “slow queue mode” and 500 “normal” generations per month.

There are still more reveals to come from OpenAI through December 23. Tune in to our live blog to stay updated.

OpenAI launches $200 monthly ChatGPT Pro subscription — and full version of o1

On day one of its 12 Days of OpenAI event, the company announced a new — and expensive — subscription plan. ChatGPT Pro is a $200-per-month tier that provides unlimited access to all of OpenAI’s models, including the full version of its o1 “reasoning” model. 

The full version of o1, which was released as a preview in September, can now reason about image uploads and has been trained to be “more concise in its thinking” to improve response times. 

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be updating all the news from OpenAI as it happens on our live blog. Follow along with us!

November 2024

Users discovered the name ‘David Mayer’ crashed ChatGPT

ChatGPT users discovered an interesting phenomenon: the popular chatbot refused to answer questions asked about a “David Mayer,” and asking it to do so caused it to freeze up instantly. While the strange behavior spawned conspiracy theories, and a slew of other names being impacted, a much more ordinary reason may be at the heart of it: digital privacy requests.

Ads might be headed to ChatGPT 

OpenAI is toying with the idea of getting into ads. CFO Sarah Friar told the Financial Times it’s weighing an ads business model, with plans to be “thoughtful” about when and where ads appear — though she later stressed that the company has “no active plans to pursue advertising.” Still, the exploration may raise eyebrows given that Sam Altman recently said ads would be a “last resort.”

ChatGPT no longer requires an account — but there’s a catch

You can now use ChatGPT without signing up for an account, but it won’t be quite the same experience. You won’t be able to save or share chats, use custom instructions, or other features associated with a persistent account. This version of ChatGPT will have “slightly more restrictive content policies,” according to OpenAI. When TechCrunch asked for more details, however, the response was unclear:

“The signed out experience will benefit from the existing safety mitigations that are already built into the model, such as refusing to generate harmful content. In addition to these existing mitigations, we are also implementing additional safeguards specifically designed to address other forms of content that may be inappropriate for a signed out experience,” a spokesperson said.

OpenAI’s chatbot store is filling up with spam

TechCrunch found that the OpenAI’s GPT Store is flooded with bizarre, potentially copyright-infringing GPTs. A cursory search pulls up GPTs that claim to generate art in the style of Disney and Marvel properties, but serve as little more than funnels to third-party paid services and advertise themselves as being able to bypass AI content detection tools.

The New York Times responds to OpenAI’s claims that it “hacked” ChatGPT for its copyright lawsuit

In a court filing opposing OpenAI’s motion to dismiss The New York Times’ lawsuit alleging copyright infringement, the newspaper asserted that “OpenAI’s attention-grabbing claim that The Times ‘hacked’ its products is as irrelevant as it is false.” The New York Times also claimed that some users of ChatGPT used the tool to bypass its paywalls.

ChatGPT will now remember — and forget — things you tell it to

As part of a test, OpenAI began rolling out new “memory” controls for a small portion of ChatGPT free and paid users, with a broader rollout to follow. The controls let you tell ChatGPT explicitly to remember something, see what it remembers or turn off its memory altogether. Note that deleting a chat from chat history won’t erase ChatGPT’s or a custom GPT’s memories — you must delete the memory itself.

OpenAI begins rolling out “Temporary Chat” feature

Initially limited to a small subset of free and subscription users, Temporary Chat lets you have a dialogue with a blank slate. With Temporary Chat, ChatGPT won’t be aware of previous conversations or access memories but will follow custom instructions if they’re enabled.

But, OpenAI says it may keep a copy of Temporary Chat conversations for up to 30 days for “safety reasons.”

There is a free version of ChatGPT that only requires a sign-in in addition to the paid version, ChatGPT Plus.

Who uses ChatGPT?

Anyone can use ChatGPT! More and more tech companies and search engines are utilizing the chatbot to automate text or quickly answer user questions/concerns.

What companies use ChatGPT?

Multiple enterprises utilize ChatGPT, although others may limit the use of the AI-powered tool.

Most recently, Microsoft announced at its 2023 Build conference that it is integrating it ChatGPT-based Bing experience into Windows 11. A Brooklyn-based 3D display startup Looking Glass utilizes ChatGPT to produce holograms you can communicate with by using ChatGPT.  And nonprofit organization Solana officially integrated the chatbot into its network with a ChatGPT plug-in geared toward end users to help onboard into the web3 space.

What does GPT mean in ChatGPT?

GPT stands for Generative Pre-Trained Transformer.

What is the difference between ChatGPT and a chatbot?

A chatbot can be any software/system that holds dialogue with you/a person but doesn’t necessarily have to be AI-powered. For example, there are chatbots that are rules-based in the sense that they’ll give canned responses to questions.

ChatGPT is AI-powered and utilizes LLM technology to generate text after a prompt.

Can ChatGPT write essays?

Yes.

Can ChatGPT commit libel?

Due to the nature of how these models work, they don’t know or care whether something is true, only that it looks true. That’s a problem when you’re using it to do your homework, sure, but when it accuses you of a crime you didn’t commit, that may well at this point be libel.

We will see how handling troubling statements produced by ChatGPT will play out over the next few months as tech and legal experts attempt to tackle the fastest moving target in the industry.

Does ChatGPT have an app?

Yes, there is a free ChatGPT mobile app for iOS and Android users.

What is the ChatGPT character limit?

It’s not documented anywhere that ChatGPT has a character limit. However, users have noted that there are some character limitations after around 500 words.

Does ChatGPT have an API?

Yes, it was released March 1, 2023.

Everyday examples include programming, scripts, email replies, listicles, blog ideas, summarization, etc.

What are some advanced uses for ChatGPT?

Advanced use examples include debugging code, programming languages, scientific concepts, complex problem solving, etc.

How good is ChatGPT at writing code?

It depends on the nature of the program. While ChatGPT can write workable Python code, it can’t necessarily program an entire app’s worth of code. That’s because ChatGPT lacks context awareness — in other words, the generated code isn’t always appropriate for the specific context in which it’s being used.

Can you save a ChatGPT chat?

Yes. OpenAI allows users to save chats in the ChatGPT interface, stored in the sidebar of the screen. There are no built-in sharing features yet.

Are there alternatives to ChatGPT?

Yes. There are multiple AI-powered chatbot competitors such as Together, Google’s Gemini and Anthropic’s Claude, and developers are creating open source alternatives.

How does ChatGPT handle data privacy?

OpenAI has said that individuals in “certain jurisdictions” (such as the EU) can object to the processing of their personal information by its AI models by filling out this form. This includes the ability to make requests for deletion of AI-generated references about you. Although OpenAI notes it may not grant every request since it must balance privacy requests against freedom of expression “in accordance with applicable laws”.

The web form for making a deletion of data about you request is entitled “OpenAI Personal Data Removal Request”.

In its privacy policy, the ChatGPT maker makes a passing acknowledgement of the objection requirements attached to relying on “legitimate interest” (LI), pointing users towards more information about requesting an opt out — when it writes: “See here for instructions on how you can opt out of our use of your information to train our models.”

What controversies have surrounded ChatGPT?

Recently, Discord announced that it had integrated OpenAI’s technology into its bot named Clyde where two users tricked Clyde into providing them with instructions for making the illegal drug methamphetamine (meth) and the incendiary mixture napalm.

An Australian mayor has publicly announced he may sue OpenAI for defamation due to ChatGPT’s false claims that he had served time in prison for bribery. This would be the first defamation lawsuit against the text-generating service.

CNET found itself in the midst of controversy after Futurism reported the publication was publishing articles under a mysterious byline completely generated by AI. The private equity company that owns CNET, Red Ventures, was accused of using ChatGPT for SEO farming, even if the information was incorrect.

Several major school systems and colleges, including New York City Public Schools, have banned ChatGPT from their networks and devices. They claim that the AI impedes the learning process by promoting plagiarism and misinformation, a claim that not every educator agrees with.

There have also been cases of ChatGPT accusing individuals of false crimes.

Where can I find examples of ChatGPT prompts?

Several marketplaces host and provide ChatGPT prompts, either for free or for a nominal fee. One is PromptBase. Another is ChatX. More launch every day.

Can ChatGPT be detected?

Poorly. Several tools claim to detect ChatGPT-generated text, but in our tests, they’re inconsistent at best.

Are ChatGPT chats public?

No. But OpenAI recently disclosed a bug, since fixed, that exposed the titles of some users’ conversations to other people on the service.

What lawsuits are there surrounding ChatGPT?

None specifically targeting ChatGPT. But OpenAI is involved in at least one lawsuit that has implications for AI systems trained on publicly available data, which would touch on ChatGPT.

Are there issues regarding plagiarism with ChatGPT?

Yes. Text-generating AI models like ChatGPT have a tendency to regurgitate content from their training data.

Géminis, mayo de 2025: Su horóscopo mensual

Published

on

Para Gemini carismático, adaptable y curioso: esto es lo que puede esperar disfrutar, trabajar y recibir durante todo el mes de mayo.

Nuestras mentes subconscientes son más perceptivas a los cambios inminentes de lo que nuestras mentes conscientes podrían darse cuenta. Al igual que los temblores antes de un tsunami, las partes más profundas de nuestros corazones y mentes a menudo pueden sentir cuando está a punto de tener lugar un cambio significativo. Ese ciertamente parece ser el caso para usted este mes, Géminis, ya que su pronóstico comienza con un cuadrado desafiante entre la luna creciente de la depilación y su planeta gobernante, Mercurio. Iniciar un plan de acción preciso puede ser más difícil. La niebla cerebral y la falta general de motivación son igualmente probables culpables. Tome nota de lo que le ha estado molestando y mantenga esos registros en un lugar donde pueda acceder fácilmente a ellos. Incluso las molestias o ansiedades aparentemente menores pueden ser guías útiles al navegar por el cambio celestial principal de este mes.

Esa transición tiene lugar el 4 de mayo, cuando Plutón se retrógrado, un largo período celestial que afectará los pronósticos cósmicos en los próximos meses. A pesar de la inmensa distancia de este planeta enano desde nuestro punto de vista terrenal, la influencia de Plutón sobre nuestras mentes subconscientes, la transformación social, los tabúes, la muerte y el renacimiento lo convierten en un retrógrado notable. Si otros períodos retrógrados molestos como los de Mercurio son los sutiles susurros de los vientos que atraviesan las grietas en una pared, Plutón retrógrado es el tornado que derriba toda la estructura. Las transformaciones de Plutón son vastas y duraderas. Se pertenecen a aspectos de la existencia que trascienden nuestras vidas individuales mientras afectan cada parte de ellos.

Varios días después, el 7 de mayo, Mercurio forma una potente conjunción con Quirón en Aries. Quirón es un planeta enano que gobierna nuestras vulnerabilidades y heridas emocionales. Influye en la forma en que transformamos nuestro dolor en algo más útil y positivo, ya sea que sea sabiduría que podamos usar o el conocimiento que podemos compartir con los demás. La destreza comunicativa de Mercurio y el intelecto agudo se prestan a una mejor comprensión y, a su vez, el procesamiento de duelos pasados. Nunca es demasiado tarde para aprender de un viejo error, Géminis. Hacerlo puede ser la diferencia entre que esa herida emocional sea una costra dolorida y una cicatriz sutil. No puedes cambiar lo que ya ha pasado. Pero puedes cambiar a donde vayas a continuación.

Su planeta gobernante pasa a Tauro gobernado por la Tierra el mismo día que forma una oposición directa a la luna gibrosa. El mercurio en Tauro promueve la firmeza, la confianza y la estabilidad. También puede conducir a la terquedad, la ingenuidad y la alienación. Tenga cuidado de cómo ejerce esta energía cósmica, Stargazer. El enfrentamiento celestial de Mercurio con la luna gibosa de depilación crea conflicto entre la persona en la que se encuentra en este mismo momento y la persona que tiene el potencial de ser. La luna gibosa de depilación lo llama para evaluar su progreso hasta ahora. Si tuviera que mantener este mismo camino, ¿dónde estaría bajo el brillo de la luna llena en unos días? Si no estás contento con la respuesta, ahora es el momento de redirigir.

Tendrá la oportunidad de calificar sus respuestas, por así decirlo, cuando la luna llena alcanza su máxima fuerza en Scorpio el 12 de mayo. Una luna llena en Scorpio puede sonar intimidante (lo siento, Scorpios, pero su reputación le precede). Sin embargo, no seas tan rápido para asumir lo peor. Scorpio es un dominio celestial que bloquea el enfoque en la dinámica de poder, la mente subconsciente y los temas tabú u opaco como la sexualidad, la identidad, el propósito de la vida, la fe y lo que significa ser exitoso y contenido. Bajo el resplandor revelador de la luna llena, el Cosmos lo dirigirá hacia el tema que más ha estado sopesando mucho en su mente. El flujo de energía estará abierto durante este tiempo, Géminis. Capitalizar la oportunidad de perfeccionar su fuerza.

Un cambio tangible hacia el descanso y la recalibración comienza el 16 de mayo. En este día, la luna gibrosa disminuyendo forma un trígono armonioso con mercurio. La disminución de la luna gibosa nos empuja a liberar viejos comportamientos, ideas o incluso relaciones que ya no nos sirven como antes. Dos días después, Mercurio y Marte forman una plaza desafiante. Esta alineación envía un mensaje claro: ahora no es el momento de actuar. Habrá muchas posibilidades de afirmarse en el futuro. En este momento, las estrellas te instan a que atiendan tus propias necesidades y deseos.

El sol ingresa a su dominio celestial, iniciando la temporada de Géminis, el 20 de mayo. Además de fortalecer su sentido general de sí mismo y propósito, la ubicación del sol promueve el pensamiento flexible y una identidad maleable. Para ser claros, esto no es lo mismo que perderse por completo, Stargazer. Es simplemente una oportunidad para explorar otras partes de ti mismo que podría haber pensado que no existía. Llevas multitudes. Incluso en los últimos días de su vida, aún habrá profundidades inexploradas. Eso es lo que hace que esta información sea tan satisfactoria y la vida tan gratificante. Descubrir nuevas facetas de su identidad no es un castigo, a pesar de la mayor carga de trabajo emocional y mental. La oportunidad de mirar a tu sí mismo siempre es una bendición.

Las estrellas continúan priorizando el cambio y la innovación a medida que Mercurio y Urano se unen bajo Tauro. Urano podría tener una mala reputación por ser caótico y rebelde. Pero con Mercurio en la mezcla, esta alineación parece ser más audaz e innovadora que destructiva. Explore las posibilidades ante usted y absorbe lo que pueda. La luna nueva en su dominio celestial el 27 de mayo (que también se reúne con su planeta gobernante) ofrece el momento perfecto para reflexionar sobre el Intel que reunió. ¿Cómo se comparan las viejas y nuevas versiones de ti mismo? ¿Contraste? Equilibrio entre los dos mentiras en las respuestas a cualquier pregunta.

May será un momento especialmente tumultuoso en el cosmos, pero al menos terminaste en una buena base. El 27 de mayo también marca el comienzo de un trígono entre Plutón y Mercurio, que es seguido de cerca por la conjunción del Sol con su planeta gobernante el 30 de mayo. Se está produciendo un cambio importante, y todos los signos cósmicos apuntan a que sea para mejor. Abraza las mariposas en tu estómago, Géminis. Grandes cosas están en camino.

Así concluye sus aspectos más destacados mensuales. Para análisis celestiales más específicos, asegúrese de leer su horóscopo diario y semanal también. ¡Buena suerte, Géminis! Nos vemos el próximo mes.

How Would I Learn to Code with ChatGPT if I Had to Start Again

Published

on

Coding has been a part of my life since I was 10. From modifying HTML & CSS for my Friendster profile during the simple internet days to exploring SQL injections for the thrill, building a three-legged robot for fun, and lately diving into Python coding, my coding journey has been diverse and fun!

Here’s what I’ve learned from various programming approaches.

The way I learn coding is always similar; As people say, mostly it’s just copy-pasting. 😅

When it comes to building something in the coding world, here’s a breakdown of my method:

  1. Choose the Right Framework or Library
  2. Learn from Past Projects
  3. Break It Down into Steps
    Slice your project into actionable item steps, making development less overwhelming.
  4. Google Each Chunk
    For every step, consult Google/Bing/DuckDuckGo/any search engine you prefer for insights, guidance, and potential solutions.
  5. Start Coding
    Try to implement each step systematically.

However, even the most well-thought-out code can encounter bugs. Here’s my strategy for troubleshooting:

1. Check Framework Documentation: ALWAYS read the docs!

2. Google and Stack Overflow Search: search on Google and Stack Overflow. Example keyword would be:

site:stackoverflow.com [coding language] [library] error [error message]

site:stackoverflow.com python error ImportError: pandas module not found

– Stack Overflow Solutions: If the issue is already on Stack Overflow, I look for the most upvoted comments and solutions, often finding a quick and reliable answer.
– Trust My Intuition: When Stack Overflow doesn’t have the answer, I trust my intuition to search for trustworthy sources on Google; GeeksForGeeks, Kaggle, W3School, and Towards Data Science for DS stuff 😉

3. Copy-Paste the Code Solution

4. Verify and Test: The final step includes checking the modified code thoroughly and testing it to ensure it runs as intended.

And Voila you just solve the bug!

Isn’t it beautiful?

But in reality, are we still doing this?!

Lately, I’ve noticed a shift in how new coders are tackling coding. I’ve been teaching how to code professionally for about three years now, bouncing around in coding boot camps and guest lecturing at universities and corporate training. The way coders are getting into code learning has changed a bit.

I usually tell the fresh faces to stick with the old-school method of browsing and googling for answers, but people are still using ChatGPT eventually. And their alibi is

“Having ChatGPT (for coding) is like having an extra study buddy -who chats with you like a regular person”.

It comes in handy, especially when you’re still trying to wrap your head around things from search results and documentation — to develop what is so-called programmer intuition.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m all for the basics. Browsing, reading docs, and throwing questions into the community pot — those are solid moves, in my book. Relying solely on ChatGPT might be a bit much. Sure, it can whip up a speedy summary of answers, but the traditional browsing methods give you the freedom to pick and choose, to experiment a bit, which is pretty crucial in the coding world.

But, I’ve gotta give credit where it’s due — ChatGPT is lightning-fast at giving out answers, especially when you’re still trying to figure out the right from the wrong in search results and docs.

I realize this shift of using ChatGPT as a study buddy is not only happening in the coding scene, Chatgpt has revolutionized the way people learn, I even use ChatGPT to fix my grammar for this post, sorry Grammarly.

Saying no to ChatGPT is like saying no to search engines in the early 2000 era. While ChatGPT may come with biases and hallucinations, similar to search engines having unreliable information or hoaxes. When ChatGPT is used appropriately, it can expedite the learning process.

Now, let’s imagine a real-life scenario where ChatGPT could help you by being your coding buddy to help with debugging.

Scenario: Debugging a Python Script

Imagine you’re working on a Python script for a project, and you encounter an unexpected error that you can’t solve.

Here is how I used to be taught to do it — the era before ChatGPT.

Browsing Approach:

  1. Check the Documentation:

Start by checking the Python documentation for the module or function causing the error.

For example:
– visit https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/ for Scikit Learn Doc

2. Search on Google & Stack Overflow:

If the documentation doesn’t provide a solution, you turn to Google and Stack Overflow. Scan through various forum threads and discussions to find a similar issue and its resolution.

StackOverflow Thread

3. Trust Your Intuition:

If the issue is unique or not well-documented, trust your intuition! You might explore articles and sources on Google that you’ve found trustworthy in the past, and try to adapt similar solutions to your problem.

Google Search Result

You can see that on the search result above, the results are from W3school – (trusted coding tutorial site, great for cheatsheet) and the other 2 results are official Pandas documentation. You can see that search engines do suggest users look at the official documentation. 😉

And this is how you can use ChatGPT to help you debug an issue.

New Approach with ChatGPT:

  1. Engage ChatGPT in Conversations:

Instead of only navigating through documentation and forums, you can engage ChatGPT in a conversation. Provide a concise description of the error and ask. For example,

“I’m encountering an issue in my [programming language] script where [describe the error]. Can you help me understand what might be causing this and suggest a possible solution?”

Engage ChatGPT in Conversations

2. Clarify Concepts with ChatGPT:

If the error is related to a concept you are struggling to grasp, you can ask ChatGPT to explain that concept. For example,

“Explain how [specific concept] works in [programming language]? I think it might be related to the error I’m facing. The error is: [the error]”

Clarify Concepts with ChatGPT

3. Seek Recommendations for Troubleshooting:

You ask ChatGPT for general tips on troubleshooting Python scripts. For instance,

“What are some common strategies for dealing with [issue]? Any recommendations on tools or techniques?”

Using ChatGPT as coding buddy

Potential Advantages:

  • Personalized Guidance: ChatGPT can provide personalized guidance based on the specific details you provide about the error and your understanding of the problem.
  • Concept Clarification: You can seek explanations and clarifications on concepts directly from ChatGPT leveraging their LLM capability.
  • Efficient Troubleshooting: ChatGPT might offer concise and relevant tips for troubleshooting, potentially streamlining the debugging process.

Possible Limitations:

Now let’s talk about the cons of relying on ChatGPT 100%. I saw these issues a lot in my student’s journey on using ChatGPT. Post ChatGPT era, my students just copied and pasted the 1-line error message from their Command Line Interface despite the error being 100 lines and linked to some modules and dependencies. Asking ChatGPT to explain the workaround by providing a 1 line error code might work sometimes, or worse — it might add 1–2 hour manhour of debugging.

ChatGPT comes with a limitation of not being able to see the context of your code. For sure, you can always give a context of your code. On a more complex code, you might not be able to give every line of code to ChatGPT. The fact that Chat GPT only sees the small portion of your code, ChatGPT will either assume the rest of the code based on its knowledge base or hallucinate.

These are the possible limitations of using ChatGPT:

  • Lack of Real-Time Dynamic Interaction: While ChatGPT provides valuable insights, it lacks the real-time interaction and dynamic back-and-forth that forums or discussion threads might offer. On StackOverflow, you might have 10 different people who would suggest 3 different solutions which you can compare either by DIY ( do it yourself, try it out) or see the number of upvotes.
  • Dependence on Past Knowledge: The quality of ChatGPT’s response depends on the information it has been trained on, and it may not be aware of the latest framework updates or specific details of your project.
  • Might add extra Debugging Time: ChatGPT does not have a context of your full code, so it might lead you to more debugging time.
  • Limited Understanding of Concept: The traditional browsing methods give you the freedom to pick and choose, to experiment a bit, which is pretty crucial in the coding world. If you know how to handpick the right source, you probably learn more from browsing on your own than relying on the ChatGPT general model.
    Unless you ask a language model that is trained and specialized in coding and tech concepts, research papers on coding materials, or famous deep learning lectures from Andrew Ng, Yann Le Cunn’s tweet on X (formerly Twitter), pretty much ChatGPT would just give a general answer.

This scenario showcases how ChatGPT can be a valuable tool in your coding toolkit, especially for obtaining personalized guidance and clarifying concepts. Remember to balance ChatGPT’s assistance with the methods of browsing and ask the community, keeping in mind its strengths and limitations.


Final Thoughts

Things I would recommend for a coder

If you really want to leverage the autocompletion model; instead of solely using ChatGPT, try using VScode extensions for auto code-completion tasks such as CodeGPT — GPT4 extension on VScode, GitHub Copilot, or Google Colab Autocomplete AI tools in Google Colab.

Auto code completion on Google Colab

As you can see in the screenshot above, Google Colab automatically gives the user suggestions on what code comes next.

Another alternative is Github Copilot. With GitHub Copilot, you can get an AI-based suggestion in real-time. GitHub Copilot suggests code completions as developers type and turn prompts into coding suggestions based on the project’s context and style conventions. As per this release from Github, Copilot Chat is now powered by OpenAI GPT-4 (a similiar model that ChatGPT is using).

I have been actively using CodeGPT as a VSCode Extension before I knew that Github Copilot is accessible for free if you are in education program. CodeGPT Co has 1M download to this date on the VSCode Extension Marketplace. CodeGPT allows seamless integration with the ChatGPT API, Google PaLM 2, and Meta Llama.
You can get code suggestions through comments, here is how:

  • Write a comment asking for a specific code
  • Press cmd + shift + i
  • Use the code 😎

You can also initiate a chat via the extension in the menu and jump into coding conversations 💬

As I reflect on my coding journey, the invaluable lesson learned is that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to learning. It’s essential to embrace a diverse array of learning methods, seamlessly blending traditional practices like browsing and community interaction with the innovative capabilities of tools like ChatGPT and auto code-completion tools.

What to Do:

  • Utilize Tailored Learning Resources: Make the most of ChatGPT’s recommendations for learning materials.
  • Collaborate for Problem-Solving: Utilize ChatGPT as a collaborative partner as if you are coding with your friends.

What Not to Do:

  • Over-Dependence on ChatGPT: Avoid relying solely on ChatGPT and ensure a balanced approach to foster independent problem-solving skills.
  • Neglect Real-Time Interaction with Coding Community: While ChatGPT offers valuable insights, don’t neglect the benefits of real-time interaction and feedback from coding communities. That also helps build a reputation in the community
  • Disregard Practical Coding Practice: Balance ChatGPT guidance with hands-on coding practice to reinforce theoretical knowledge with practical application.

Let me know in the comments how you use ChatGPT to help you code!
Happy coding!

Lo que dice el acuerdo de OpenAI del Washington Post sobre las licencias de IA

Published

on

  • Los primeros 100 días de Trump luchando contra la prensa, el cambio de los medios de comunicación a los videos de podcasts y más.
  • La evolución de la licencia de contenido de IA ofertas

    El Washington Post se ha convertido en el último editor importante en llegar a un acuerdo de licencia con Openai, uniéndose a una cohorte creciente que ahora abarca más de 20 organizaciones de noticias.

    Es parte de un patrón familiar: cada pocos meses, Openai bloquea otro editor para reforzar su tubería de contenido. Pero los términos de estos acuerdos parecen estar evolucionando en silencio, alejándose sutilmente del lenguaje explícito en torno a los datos de capacitación que definieron acuerdos anteriores y planteando nuevas preguntas sobre lo que ahora significan estas asociaciones.

    El acuerdo del Washington Post se centra en surgir su contenido en respuesta a consultas relacionadas con las noticias. “Como parte de esta asociación, ChatGPT mostrará resúmenes, citas y enlaces a informes originales de la publicación en respuesta a preguntas relevantes”, se lee el anuncio el 22 de abril sobre el acuerdo de la publicación con OpenAI. En contraste, el pasado se ocupa de editores como Axel Springer y Time, firmado en diciembre de 2023 y junio de 2024 respectivamente, explícitamente incluyó disposiciones para la capacitación de LLM de OpenAI en su contenido.

    El acuerdo de OpenAI de The Guardian, anunciado en febrero de 2025, tiene una redacción similar al anuncio del Washington Post y no se menciona los datos de capacitación. Un portavoz de Guardian se negó a comentar sobre los términos de acuerdo con OpenAI. El Washington Post no respondió a las solicitudes de comentarios.

    Estos cambios algo sutiles en el lenguaje de los términos podrían indicar un cambio más amplio en el paisaje de IA, según conversaciones con cuatro Expertos legales de medios. Podría indicar un cambio en cómo los acuerdos de licencia de contenido de IA están estructurados en el futuro, con más editores que potencialmente buscan acuerdos que prioricen la atribución y la prominencia en los motores de búsqueda de IA sobre los derechos para la capacitación modelo.

    Otro factor a tener en cuenta: estas compañías de IA ya han capacitado a sus LLM en grandes cantidades de contenido disponible en la web, según Aaron Rubin, socio del grupo estratégico de transacciones y licencias en la firma de abogados Gunderson Dettmer. Y debido a que las compañías de IA enfrentan litigios de compañías de medios que afirman que esto era una infracción de derechos de autor, como el caso del New York Times contra OpenAI, si las compañías de IA continuaran pagando a los datos de licencia con fines de capacitación, podría verse como “una admisión implícita” que debería haber pagado para licenciar esos datos y no haberlo escrito de forma gratuita, dijo Rubin.

    “[AI companies] Ya tienen un billón de palabras que han robado. No necesitan las palabras adicionales tan mal para la capacitación, pero quieren tener el contenido actualizado para respuestas [in their AI search engines]”, Dijo Bill Gross, fundador de la empresa de inicio de IA Prorata.ai, que está construyendo soluciones tecnológicas para compensar a los editores por el contenido utilizado por las compañías generativas de IA.

    Tanto las compañías de IA como los editores pueden beneficiarse de esta posible evolución, según Rubin. Las compañías de IA obtienen acceso a noticias confiables y actualizadas de fuentes confiables para responder preguntas sobre los eventos actuales en sus productos, y los editores “pueden llenar un vacío que tenían miedo que faltaran con la forma en que estas herramientas de IA han evolucionado. Estaban perdiendo clics y globos oculares y enlaces a sus páginas”, dijo. Tener una mejor atribución en lugares como la búsqueda de chatgpt tiene el potencial de impulsar más tráfico a los sitios de los editores. Al menos, esa es la esperanza.

    “Tiene el potencial de generar más dinero para los editores”, dijo Rubin. “Los editores están apostando a que así es como las personas van a interactuar con los medios de comunicación en el futuro”.

    Desde el otoño pasado, Operai ha desafiado a los gigantes de búsqueda como Google con su motor de búsqueda de IA, búsqueda de chatgpt, y ese esfuerzo depende del acceso al contenido de noticias. Cuando se le preguntó si la estructura de los acuerdos de Operai con los editores había cambiado, un portavoz de OpenAI señaló el lanzamiento de la compañía de la compañía de ChatGPT en octubre de 2024, así como mejoras anunciadas esta semana.

    “Tenemos un feed directo al contenido de nuestro socio editor para mostrar resúmenes, citas y enlaces atribuidos a informes originales en respuesta a preguntas relevantes”, dijo el portavoz. “Ese es un componente de las ofertas. La capacitación posterior ayuda a aumentar la precisión de las respuestas relacionadas con el contenido de un editor”. El portavoz no respondió a otras solicitudes de comentarios.

    No está claro cuántos editores como The Washington Post no se pueden hacer de OpenAI, especialmente porque puede surgir un modelo diferente centrado en la búsqueda de ChatGPT. Pero la perspectiva para los acuerdos de licencia entre editores y compañías de IA parece estar empeorando. El valor de estos acuerdos está “en picado”, al menos según el CEO de Atlantic, Nicholas Thompson, quien habló en el evento Reuters Next en diciembre pasado.

    “Todavía hay un mercado para la licencia de contenido para la capacitación y eso sigue siendo importante, pero continuaremos viendo un enfoque en entrar en acuerdos que resultan en impulsar el tráfico a los sitios”, dijo John Monterubio, socio del grupo avanzado de medios y tecnología en la firma de abogados Loeb & Loeb. “Será la nueva forma de marketing de SEO y compra de anuncios, para parecer más altos en los resultados al comunicarse con estos [generative AI] herramientas.”

    Las demandas de AI destacan las luchas de los editores para impedir que los bots raspen contenido

    • La reciente demanda de Ziff Davis contra Operai destaca la realidad de que los editores aún no tienen una forma confiable de evitar que las compañías de IA raspen su contenido de forma gratuita.
    • Si bien han surgido herramientas como Robots.txt archivos, paredes de pago y etiquetas de bloqueo AI-AI, muchos editores admiten que es muy difícil hacer cumplir el control en cada bot, especialmente porque algunos ignoran los protocolos estándar o enmascaran sus identidades.
