The artificial intelligence ChatGPT from the company Open AI has become quite a phenomenon . Since its launch at the end of last year, millions of people have been interacting with it with a mixture of amazement and fear at the incredible capabilities it is managing to display. And while it’s true that artificial intelligence doesn’t always come up with the right answers, it’s also true that its hit rate is very high on almost every topic it’s asked about.
