No doubt you’ve heard of OpenAI’s ChatGPT. This technology has revolutionized generative AI. Two months after launch, it had attracted an impressive 100 million users. For Instagram, they needed more than two years to achieve the same results.

According to predictions, we’re likely to develop AI that can surpass human intelligence between 2025 and 2045. This will transform our world in ways we can’t imagine. However, until that day arrives, we can certainly benefit from leveraging technologies like ChatGPT and its counterparts to improve our web projects. This is something we’re already doing at SECL Group. 

ChatGPT’s versatility ensures that it has applications in various domains. This includes, but is not limited to, software optimization. 

In this article, we’ll explore some diverse use cases of OpenAI/ChatGPT. You will learn how it can be effectively used to enhance software development. You’ll gain from our extensive experience as a web development firm, having successfully integrated this service into various systems. We’ll even share insights into how we’re working with it as part of our brand-new travel startup – but more on that later.

How does OpenAI / ChatGPT work?

Remember that ChatGPT database might not be fully up-to-date. At the time of writing, its most recent update occurred in September 2021. While data relevance is updated, there is always a slight delay. This means the AI will not be aware of the most recent global events. 

On the flip side however, ChatGPT’s trainability allows it to keep pace with data on specific projects. And there are other alternatives that do use current data, such as Chatsonic or Microsoft Bing Chat (which operates on the ChatGPT framework). 

It’s worth underscoring that despite appearances, ChatGPT is not yet on par with human intelligence, therefore it’s crucial to be specific when assigning tasks in order to avoid sub-par results. That said, the technology is particularly adept at analyzing large volumes of data, so is a solid choice if your web solution relies heavily on text content.

It’s also crucial to remember that Google can distinguish between content generated by ChatGPT and content written by humans. Therefore, generating large volumes of text using this technology will not be the most strategic move, as Google is likely to classify such texts as having been plagiarized, which will lower your search engine rankings.

The language of your project is another important consideration, as ChatGPT performs best with English. For other languages, there might be certain nuances to be aware of. On cost, although the API isn’t free, OpenAI initially credits a small amount to your account for you to get started with. To make additional queries, however, you’ll need to pay.

Recently, there’s been a surge of out-of-the-box solutions based on ChatGPT, but their capability to address varied needs remains limited. Typically, these solutions are chatbot-related.

OpenAI/ChatGPT can be integrated into web projects with any tech stack via API. Our company specializes in Python, JS, and PHP projects, so we naturally lean towards these technologies.

Our expertise in using ChatGPT

We have experience integrating ChatGPT capabilities in different projects. Although we have found out that many clients still consider it as only a chat, this is a much more extensive technology. You can use it in almost any part of a project. Here are a few cases from our experience.

For example, we used it for a Country Helper. This is a travel planning service and we decided to add an online guide to it. Using ChatGPT capabilities, this guide can make voice tours of different sights. The tourists can ask questions and the online guide can answer them.

We have also added the ability to look for destinations and other places not just by keywords, but analyzing more abstract requests. For instance, the tourist can say or type “I want to have a fun time and eat some delicious food today.” Then, the ChatGPT analyzes the reviews of objects in, say, 15 km area and offers the most suitable places for their request. Hence, we implemented a full-fledged AI-based search on the maps for the first time in history. 

For an online learning platform that specializes in foreign languages, we added AI-based capabilities that can replace a native speaker. You can communicate with ChatGPT via voice on different educational topics. At the time we developed these features, the ChatGPT didn’t have the ability to communicate with voice. First, we transformed the audio into text and only then received a response from ChatGPT. Then, we turned into voice recording again. For this project, we have also enabled an automatic optimization of all texts, exercises, and other learning materials to a certain user’s learning objective (finance, medical, law, etc.).
