How to get started with Chat GPT – A step by step guide

Using chat GPT (short for “generative pretrained transformer”) is a simple and straightforward process that can be done by anyone with a computer and an internet connection. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to get started:

First, go to the link https://chat.openai.com/

As more people started to use Chat GPT, it sometimes reaches its maximum capacity and will be unable to accommodate any more. If you access the above URL at specific times, you may see a message similar to the one shown below. You may have to try reaching the site after some time.

A message shown indicating that Chat GPT can not accommodate any more users including you

When you visit the site for the first time, you will need to sign up for an account. This usually involves entering your email address and creating a password.

You must now create an account by providing your email address or by logging in with your Gmail or Microsoft account. Don’t forget to click the ‘I am not a robot’ button.

You will now be asked to provide your name and decide if you agree to the Terms & Conditions before moving further. Click continue if you agree.

After this it will ask your country & mobile number in order to send an OTP. Please follow the instructions.

After you have created an account, you can start using chat GPT by accessing the online interface or platform provided. This is a web-based application that allows you to interact with chat GPT using natural language.

Start interacting just like you are chatting with a friend on whatsapp or instagram.

To use chat GPT, you will simply need to type in a question or request and hit the “enter” key. Chat GPT will then generate a response based on the information it has been trained on.

Chat GPT is capable of a wide range of tasks, such as responding to inquiries, offering details, producing text, and even having conversations. The generation of content, data analysis, and language translation are some frequent use cases for chat GPT.
