On November 30, 2022, the world changed forever—Artificial Intelligence became publicly available through a tool called ChatGPT. It’s a chatbot you can talk to about practically any topic; you can ask for advice, or request it to prepare investment research, generate new content, or check your software code. You can ask it to create a bot for you even if you don’t know programming at all. It can suggest a diet plan for weight loss, become your personal assistant or even a home psychologist. It can write an essay for a university, develop a marketing strategy for your company, write a film script or an article with keywords, and it can handle many other requests too.
It’s hard to grasp ChatGPT’s true potential because it’s limited only by our ability to ask the right questions and by our imagination. In this book, we’ll look at the possibilities for applying ChatGPT, as well as the broader consequences of this technology for AI and society as a whole. We’ll examine the history of AI development, and also see how different AI models are used today in various industries. We’ll consider potential uses of AI in the future, different scenarios for interaction between AI and people, and the economic, ethical, and social consequences of developing and using it.
This book will also help you understand how to use AI tools to increase your personal productivity or find additional sources of income, strengthen your career position, or improve the profitability and efficiency of your business. If you still think that ChatGPT is just an interesting technology that won’t radically change our future, our way of life, and the labor market in particular—here’s one more argument in favor of the opposite: the introduction to this book that you’ve just read was written, among other things, with the help of ChatGPT:)
Rest assured, the rest of the book is written by a real human author—but how can that now be proven?
