Ⅲ. 人工智能 人工智能技术正在以惊人的速度改变我们的世界，医疗、农业、交通、教育等领域都能见到人工智能的应用。一款热门的聊天机器人ChatGPT引起了Daniel的注意。
新素材 ChatGPT新功能 ①ChatGPT is a chatbot used on the computer. The creator of ChatGPT, OpenAI, has announced(公布）its latest upgrades(升级）. The changes allow some users to directly ask ChatGPT questions and get voice answers. Also, ChatGPT can read images(图像）and give information about what is in them.
②When you ask ChatGPT questions, it can speak in the way that you feel like talking with a human. ▲. It can also tell a story to children or provide detailed steps for making or building something.
③Users can choose different voices they want the chatbot to use. OpenAI works closely with professional voice actors to make the interactions more realistic and personal.
④Another big change to ChatGPT is image recognition. For example, you could take a picture of what is in your fridge. After you send the photo into ChatGPT, it can tell you what dishes you can make for dinner and how to cook them step by step.
⑤Another example is that a parent might send a picture of a child's Maths problem and then get advice on how to teach the child to work it out through ChatGPT. There is even a way for users to mark on the image, for example with a circle, to get more information or help.
⑥Now the new upgrades can only be used by the users of ChatGPT's Plus and Enterprise services. ChatGPT's main service, called GPT - 3.5, is free for all users. ChatGPT Plus costs 20 per month. The Enterprise service is used by companies. Other groups of users can have the new upgrades in the near future.
⑦ Along with its announcement, OpenAI advised all its users to be careful about the information given by ChatGPT. That's because the system is trained by a huge amount of information, some of which may be out of date or even wrong.
