📌 What is ChatGPT?
Full Form: Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer
Developer: OpenAI (an AI research company in USA)
Launch Date: November 2022 (ChatGPT went public).
Type: An AI-powered chatbot that uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Learning.
Purpose: To understand text and generate human-like responses in conversation.
---
🔬 How does ChatGPT work?
1. It is built on Large Language Models (LLMs).
2. It uses a Transformer neural network architecture.
3. It has been trained on massive datasets (books, articles, websites, coding, etc.).
4. It predicts the next word in a sentence, allowing it to generate complete, logical, human-like
responses.

📖 Versions of GPT (OpenAI models)
GPT-1 (2018) → first small version.
GPT-2 (2019) → larger, could generate better text.
GPT-3 (2020) → much more powerful, used in many apps.
ChatGPT (2022) → conversational AI built on GPT-3.5.
GPT-4 (2023) → more advanced, supports text + images.
GPT-5 (2024–2025) → most advanced (this is what I’m running on for you).
