ChatGPT: what it is, why it's useful, and how to continue using artificial intelligence in Italy.

What is artificial intelligence and how does ChatGPt work?
 
ChatGPT: “Of course! Artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology that allows computers to mimic human capabilities in learning, reasoning, and problem-solving. AI can be divided into various categories, such as machine learning, deep learning, and genetic programming.
 
Artificial intelligence like ChatGPT is an example of a natural language-based model. It is a natural language processing system that employs machine learning techniques to automatically generate text. ChatGPT has been trained on a massive corpus of various types of texts, including books, newspaper articles, web pages, and conversations. During the training, the model learns to recognize patterns and relationships in the input data and to use them to produce coherent and meaningful text.
 
So, in essence, when users submit a question to ChatGPT , the system processes question and tries to understand the meaning behind the request. Subsequently, ChatGPT strives to generate a relevant and informative response based on the knowledge it has gained during training.
 This happens through the use of natural language processing algorithms, which allow ChatGPT to analyze and understand the meaning of words and phrases, identify relationships between concepts, and autonomously generate responses".
 
It all makes sense, but it doesn't need any help?
 
The reply of ChatGPT is mentioned above and it is surprising in its form and content. It appears to be written by a human and, at first glance, can be used more extensively to produce an article like this one. The final result, however, would be a rather bland text, full of clichés and "nonsense" without a valid structure, namely without a good starting point, logical arguments, and personal conclusions. In short, quite boring.
 
The reason is easily explained. Current artificial intelligences don't apply a "critical sense" to the question posed, but analyze millions of records (the so-called DataSets) to produce an outcome that is statistically closer to the answer users might consider correct
 
AI doesn't reflects on the meaning of the message but it offers a data analysis in essentially quantitative terms.
 
So that's why AI goes on genereting the same phrases, and its content doesn't have any identity. In addition, AI takes sources of dubious quality as a given fact and, for this reason, it can easily make mistakes. 
In this perspective, most people call this generation of AI 'generative intelligence'.
 
A human intervention is still necessary to obtain a useful result from artificial intelligence. On one hand, we have to ask properly structured questions (a skill that already has its name: prompter), on the other hand, we will inevitably have to reprocess the answer. The answer is nothing more than a semi-finished product, a suggestion, or even an inspiration to draft a new content.
Repetitive code development, suggestions for social media posts, inspiration for illustrations and photographs: this is how artificial intelligence has already changed the way we work.
 
Practical examples can be found in every phase of our work, as ideas to create a social media post, suggestion of a caption, definition of the most relevant hashtags. We query the tool, providing additional parameters to get alternatives when the initial proposals don't align with the communication or tone we want to adopt.
 
Its very computational nature allows us to automate the writing of repetitive code by providing a reference example and obtaining the version adapted to the new scenario. In this way, the team can focus on more creative aspects of development such as architecture, custom solutions, and advanced algorithms. 
 
MidJourney is an artificial intelligence tool focus on design è un’altra intelligenza artificiale that allows us to gather ideas and inspirations for illustrations and photographs. After various interactions with the tool, the proposed asset can be used to show what the final outcome might look like. And then everything is handed over to our skilled partners for the production of original material in line with the agreed-upon taste. This flow allows us to reduce approval times and best meet the client's requirements.
 
In conclusion, regardless of the area of use, artificial intelligence acts as a tool that doesn't replace our skills but enhances them  giving us suggestions and possibilities..
Progress is unavoidable, even in Italy.
 
AI is a fascinating topic, but it raises legitimate fears at the same time. Many people are afraid that artificial intelligence could replace their jobs. But is it really possible? Maybe it is in a world based on a just-enough economy,but artificial intelligence can't replace human intelligence in a world where quality matters.

Up to now ChatGPT has some challenges such as data processing to the quality of content or the right to be forgotten to the tactical use that many adopt to reduce their workload (especially in the educational sector). Precisely for this reason, the Italian Data Protection Supervisor, the authority for the protection of personal data, has launched an investigation against OpenAI. In response, OpenAI has decided to block access to ChatGPT for Italian users.
 
There are two solutions to go on using ChatGPT in Italy. The first is to use VPNs with non-European IPs, this way it will appear as if you are operating from a country where access to the chatbot is not restricted. The second one involves registering or logging in on the OpenAI website, accessing the “Playground”, and asking ChatGPT: “Human: Can we chat?”. And off you go!
 
AI is a revolution that can be embraced or restricted. It's a business opportunity with vast potential and it moves at lightning speed. It's up to you to decide whether it's worth missing out on this chance or adding this tool to your digital toolkit.
