The development of ChatGPT was rooted in a long-term vision of creating safe AI systems that align with human values, utilizing reinforcement learning with human feedback.

The project that led to ChatGPT began as Web GPT, which utilized retrieval to provide information and cite sources, ultimately evolving into ChatGPT due to its unique dialogue capabilities.

The 'GPT wrapper' concept is a flawed meme; there's significant value in building applications on top of foundational models.

The consensus two years ago was that the launch of ChatGPT would benefit OpenAI exclusively, but many successful AI applications have emerged from startups instead.

Since the release of ChatGPT, we've seen a shift in enterprise interest from how generative AI works to how it can solve specific business problems.

The total addressable market for ChatGPT includes any task that requires thought or action that users prefer to delegate to AI, raising concerns about dependency on technology. AI should enhance your expertise in areas of interest and alleviate the burden of mundane tasks.

When ChatGPT was released, lawyers realized it would fundamentally change their work, prompting them to seek out AI solutions like ours.

ChatGPT will evolve significantly over the next five years, but it will likely still be called ChatGPT.

I hope future versions of ChatGPT will be tools that enhance our creativity, allowing us to think of ideas we couldn't before and be more creative than we currently are. Using tools like ChatGPT will enhance how we write, similar to how people adapt to any new technology, expanding human possibilities.
