ChatGPT, powered by OpenAI’s advanced conversational AI, is more than a typical AI chatbot. Based on the GPT-3.5 architecture, it utilizes natural language processing to deliver near-human responses based on the prompts that users provide.

It can generate human-like responses, answer questions, follow up on topics, admit mistakes, and reject inappropriate prompts.
ChatGPT is well known for providing personalized conversational experiences to its users, enabling them to explore ideas, seek guidance, and engage in meaningful exchanges.

Basically, since it is a language model, users can talk to this chatbot using their mother tongue. Here is an example of how BitPinas talked to ChatGPT in the Filipino language:

Features of the ChatGPT Android App

However, another milestone was celebrated when OpenAI introduced the ChatGPT app for iOS on May 18, 2023. This iOS app was said to have 500,000 downloads during the first week of its launch.

According to an online publication focusing on technology advancement Tech Crunch, the ChatGPT app on Android looks to be more or less identical to the iOS one in functionality.
