Getting started with ChatGPT

ChatGPT is a conversational AI assistant built on large language models (AI systems trained on vast amounts of text to recognize patterns and generate responses) that helps users think, write, and solve problems by accepting prompts, which are questions or instructions you give it. To use ChatGPT effectively, start with simple tasks like drafting, brainstorming, or summarizing, then gradually move toward more structured setups using tools like Projects or custom GPTs for tasks you do repeatedly.
