up is open ai.com click that and if you scroll all the way down to the bottom you'll see where it says try chat GPT click that you already have an existing account it's going to bring you right to the chat GPT account if you don't it's going to bring you to this page you'll have two options you can create an account of an existing account that you already have to speed up the process or you can just add an email address and create it right here now Chad gbt has a free version so you really have nothing to lose here to try it out this is what the interface looks like very simple very easy to use even though this is such a powerful technology all you need to do is just ask at anything in the prompt box right here this is the smartest most caring most patient least judgmental teacher you're ever going to have and it's also going to be an incredible assistant to you and all you have to do is just get into the habit of using it you're going to find out how useful this technology is for you now my first piece of advice is don't worry about if you're asking the question wrong there's so many people when they're first getting started getting hung up on am I prompting it right don't worry about it just ask it questions like like you would ask a human and if you don't get the response that you want just follow up with another question or another request it remembers everything that you just asked it I'm going to share some of the basic use cases that I think you should get started with but before we do that I want you to get into the habit of understanding that you have a very smart teacher right in front of you so we could always start off with just asking it that question what are some simple use cases to share with a person who is just getting started with learning chat GPT so now it's going to give you a list of ways that you can use it and as I said it remembers everything that we talked about before so if I want to learn more about everyday assistance I could just say give me more detail on the first item and it's smart enough to know that I'm asking about everyday assistance here are some use cases that I use it for that I think you should start off with but if you need more all you have to do is ask chat GPT the first use case that I want to share with you is probably the way I use it the most I have chat gbt edit all my email all my documents I've never sounded smarter I've never communicated more clearly and I highly recommend that you use chat gbt the same way so here's an example of how I have it answer my email I'll just copy the email that I received from somebody and this email is suggesting different dates that we meet so all I do is copy the email over to chat gbt and then instruct chat gbt with the prompt answer this with meeting on the 7th and there you go just like that I'll copy that paste it send it next use case is that it can teach you anything so if I were to ask it what is chat gbt it's going to give me a description of chat gbt now let's assume that how it responded was still too technical for me you can just ask it to dumb it down by saying something like explain it to me as if I'm 12 years old and it's just going to dumb it down to make it easier jet GPT also acts as a search engine all you have to do the icon that looks like a little Earth Under The Prompt box you click that and it goes into search mode so it's going to give you the latest information now my wife has a birthday later in the month and I saw something cool that I think my my wife would like please search the plantag GOI and tell me more about it now Chad is going to search the web tell me that the plantag GOI is an AI powered smart planter designed to make plant caring engaging and Interactive gives me a YouTube video also gives me links if I want to check it out jat gbt also does a great job at summarizing large PDFs or large documents when you're ready to turn off the search you could just click again and search is turned off chat GPT is also very good at summarizing large PDFs or large documents hundreds of pages long summarize in seconds all you have to do is click the paperclip upload upload your PDF in this case I'm uploading a 61 page employee handbook press enter it's going to read the document and it's ready and I can just ask it to summarize this document for me and it's going to summarize the information and now I can ask it any individual questions give me all the details on the vacation policy it's also great for giving you ideas give me seven ideas on YouTube videos to create on the topic of chat gbt and there you go it gives you seven and right on the top beginner's guide to chat GB T I wonder where I got this idea it's also a great Image Maker the way that you would ask it to create an image is you just say create an image of whatever it is that you want and in this case of a friendly robot teaching a student about chat gbt it'll go into image making mode and there you go now chat gbt also has eyes so you could take a picture of anything uploaded in the chat gbt it can review it and it could help you with whatever it is that you need so for instance I opened up my refrigerator door I took a picture of all the food that's in there based on what you see create some recipes for me it's going to review everything that's in my refrigerator my very messy refrigerator and it's it's going to give me ideas on what I can make the cool thing about that is that if you have a plumbing problem or even if you have a car problem you could take a picture of the issue upload that onto chat gbt and ask chat gbt to like a plumber and diagnose this problem for me it can translate over a hundred different languages rewrite those recipes in Spanish there you go I could spend hours sharing use cases with you but the use cases that are going to be customized to you are going to be created by you and the only way you get to that level where you understand how to use it as effectively as possible is just getting into the habit of using it every day this is a very powerful technology but it's very simple to use and it's easy to learn all you have to do is just get started when we're done with this thread if I want to start a new chat all we have to do is go over to the uh top left corner where it says new chat you click that and we have a fresh new interface once again and notice what we have on the left hand side we have that thread we have that chat that we just created if we go back to it click that now we're back so everything that was said before chat gbt remembers if we want to add to this chat we can or we could now go to our new chat as you use chat GPT on a regular basis you're going to have a whole bunch of chats a whole bunch of threads on the left hand side that you can refer to if you've been using it like me for the last two years my paid version this is the free version that I'm sharing with you so that you see what you're going to see but my paid version I have 2 years worth of threads now you have options with these threads if you get too many in there you can archive them you could set them aside so that they don't clutter the left- hand side you could share them with anybody else with chat gbt and if it's not named something that you're going to remember you can rename it so that if you want to refer to it you can now once you have plenty of chats if you need to refer back to something you just hit the magnifying glass you can search chats and uh you just put in whatever it is and since we have only one thread I'm going to go with chat gbt since I know we said chat gbt many times and it's going to pull up that thread now that you have a bunch of use cases to get started let me give you some chbt accelerator tips first of all use it like you currently use Google and what I mean by that is have it open all the time similar to how you have Google all the time you're not thinking about where do I go to search you're just going right to Google that's the mindset I want you to have with chat GPT so have it open all the time and again ask it questions like you would ask a human this is the smartest most caring most patient non-judgmental teacher you're ever going to have so just ask it questions don't be intimidated by it don't worry about if you're prompting it correctly you're asking it correctly just follow up with additional questions if you don't get the answer that you want talk to it like you're talking to another human and by having it open and using it all the time I want you to create the habit of asking yourself can I do this faster can I do this easier can I do this better with chat GPT it's that muscle memory that's going to allow you to begin to go into an automatic mode where you're not even thinking about it anymore you're just using it correctly all the time and always remember people first people last and what I mean by that is that in order to use this technology correctly first of all you want to start with your idea your voice then you let chat gbt speed up the process of creating whatever it is you want your document your task whatever it is and then before you send it out there into the world people last you check it again you make sure that it it has your voice consistently flowing through whatever it is that you created and also you make sure that there are no errors and then lastly those documents that used to take hours that are now taking minutes when you first get started it feels like you're cheating this is not cheating this is smart this is how everybody's going to be doing business you're just getting the head start now one other thing I want you to be aware of is what's called AI hallucinations and what are they they occur when an artificial intelligence model like chat GPT generates information that is incorrect nonsensical or fabricated despite sounding plausible or confident this happens with all generative AI not just chat gbt so you got to watch out for AI hallucinations and why does this happen this happens because of the generative programming the way these tools have been programmed is simply this if there is a lack of information the programming will kick in and will fill that gap of information with what it believes should be there and sometimes it gets it wrong and that is why people first people last whatever you create check the work make sure you get that last edit in before you send it out into the world so that you're avoiding any kind of AI hallucinations now lastly have created PDFs chat GPT feature and icon PDFs all of the features and icons that we discussed are on here plus more so that when you've quickly passed the beginner stage you could start trying out some of these other features and icons on chaty BT and then finally if you're struggling with just getting started I have the step by step on how to sign up there are no excuses there are no excuses so what I expect you to do after you finish this video sign up start using it use it on a regular basis and you're going to be smarter because of it and you're going to find out very quickly that this technology as advanced as it is is very simple to use and you'll quickly catch up and then jump ahead of everybody else cuz even though Chad gbt is 2 years old it is still early ladies and gentlemen and again one last reminder if you like this if you got anything out of it please like it please subscribe if you're not subscribed and most importantly please share this with others who you feel need to learn how to use chat gbt
