Find out how are companies are integrating this OpenAI API to enhance their existing products!
We’ve all heard of ChatGPT. The tool quickly became an online sensation, and everyone kept mentioning its exceptional capabilities as an AI-based platform.
Recently, ChatGPT has entered a new phase. Its maker, OpenAI, recently announced that it would allow third-party developers to add their AI chatbots and Whisper to their apps and services with an Application Programming Interface (API).
Let us understand what this API is and which companies are using it.
What’s Happening?
As OpenAI has developed the ChatGPT API, many major companies announced that they are using this service of ChatGPT. ChatGPT API can be used for any app, website, product or service. This means that any business can add ChatGPT’s technology through the API.
What is API in the First Place?
So, API stands for Application Programming Interface. It enables various software programmes to communicate with one another.
Picture it like being a waiter in a restaurant. An API is an intermediary between two software apps, much like a waiter is between the customer and the kitchen. It gets requests from one application and responds.
If we take an example of a weather app on your phone, it sends a request to a weather API to get the current weather data for your location. The API then responds with the requested data, which the app displays on your screen.
Many businesses have stated that they are utilising Open AI’s API service. It is applicable to any app, website, product, or service. This implies that any company can implement ChatGPT API technology.
Advantages of ChatGPT API
ChatGPT API can make any app or website more attractive. For example, you can request the chatbot to write research-based content for any social media platform. You can request a shopping question on an e-commerce website, or an ed-tech app can help you learn a new language. This chatbot will help in keeping users engaged.
Companies Using the API
Snapchat, the popular social media app, has launched a chatbot using the most recent iteration of OpenAI’s ChatGPT. ‘MyAI,’ which will be available to subscribers first, will enable users to interact with chatbots.
Quizlet is a worldwide learning platform over 60 million students use to study, practice, and learn. With the launch of ChatGPT API, Quizlet is launching an AI tutor, ‘Q-Chat’, which will help keep students engaged through a fun chat experience.
According to a report published in Forbes, companies such as Snapchat, Quizlet, grocery delivery company Instacart, consumer-based Shopify, and language learning app Speak are using ChatGPT.
What’s Next?
The ChatGPT API launch is expected to affect the developer community significantly, providing them with new tools to build more advanced and sophisticated language applications. This is just the beginning, as more and more companies are expected to use this technology in the future. AI is a future game changer, allowing people to do tasks that previously needed expert assistance.
While the debate over its benefits and drawbacks continues, artificial intelligence (AI) remains a hot topic for discussion around the globe.
That’s it for today. Remember to share the article with your friends.
