However the technology sophistication raises inevitable question: what are the drawbacks of ChatGPT and similar technologies? With capabilities to generate a multitude of realistic responses, ChatGPT could be used to create a host of responses capable of tricking an unassuming reader into thinking a real human is behind the content.
ChatGPT takes a complex prompt and generates a full response, potentially spanning multiple paragraphs.
ChatGPT does not "Think" like us; it uses data from the internet to generate a response.
ChatGPT responses can be convincing, and thus, the potential to generate content that could deceive an individual into believing it was written by a person exists.
Since the ChatGPT model is open-source, an enterprising individual could create a dataset of existing company-generated emails to create a tool that quickly and easily produces phishing emails.
ChatGPT is a game-changer, providing an easy-to-use and powerful tool for AI-generated conversations.
