ChatGPT, the sophisticated conversational AI developed by OpenAI, an American artificial intelligence research institute, is now accessible to users in Ethiopia. This marks a milestone for the people of Ethiopia, who have previously faced obstacles in accessing ChatGPT.
ChatGPT stands for Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer and has been designed to have conversational interactions with users. ChatGPT can answer questions, write code, detect errors, and more. It can also reject inappropriate requests and remember previous requests. It converses in a human-like manner based on a huge dataset.
Previously, Ethiopians turned to alternative chatbot applications, developed by local talent using OpenAI’s API, as an alternative.
With this recent development, Ethiopians can access ChatGPT through its website or app without the need for a VPN or a foreign SIM card number. To begin using ChatGPT, users can simply go to the OpenAI website and create an account. Once account is set up, they can start using ChatGPT right away.
ChatGPT is still under development, and it is important to note that it may not always be accurate or reliable. However, it is a powerful tool that has the potential to be very useful. I encourage you to explore all the ways that ChatGPT can be used to improve your life and the lives of those around you.
