To use ChatGPT, follow these core steps:
- Create an OpenAI account by going to chat.openai.com and signing up or logging in. This can be done via email (with phone verification) or by signing in with Google or Microsoft accounts.
- Once logged in, type your query, question, or instruction in the message box at the bottom of the screen and hit Enter.
- ChatGPT will generate a response in seconds which you can read or listen to.
- After receiving a response, you can refine your prompt by editing it, ask a follow-up question leveraging the chat’s context, regenerate the response, copy or share the reply, or like/dislike it for feedback.
Additional features include uploading images or files as prompts, using voice mode to speak your prompt, and utilizing a canvas mode to edit and organize responses in a separate workspace. ChatGPT can be accessed both on the web and through mobile apps for iOS and Android, providing easy access on the go. This process makes ChatGPT straightforward and intuitive to interact with for various uses such as answering questions, brainstorming, generating content, and more.
