It can do many things as people like answering questions, doing translations, giving the main ideas of passages and even writing codes (代码) for a computer program. It is just like a human living inside a computer.
ChatGPT is making people's life a lot easier. However, it also means job losses. If a computer program can write code, then it would make a programmer lose his job. That may be a worry, but it is still too early to worry about that.
On the one hand, it's still not that creative. A computer can quickly draw a picture, but that picture will be based on (基于) pictures that it has seen. It can also write books about the future, but the books will be based on articles about the future that it has read. For example, a human imagines the future and then tries bard to realize it. Although a computer can imagine a future faster, it can't imagine a world of future as well as humans. On the other hand, some answers to difficult questions by ChatGPT may be strange, but people can answer them better after deep thinking. So there is no need to worry too much.
But one thing we must agree is that AI technology has progressed quickly!
(1)、ChatGPT is a new chatbot model invented in America.(2)、There is a real man working inside the computer so ChatGPT can do many things as people.(3)、A programmer may lose his job when a computer program can write codes.(4)、Both a computer and humans can imagine a world of future well.(5)、All kinds of answers can be answered by ChatGPT perfectly.21. 阅读短文内容, 把A﹣E五个句子填入文中空缺处, 使短文内容完整。Life is full of regrets (遗憾).
