In this episode, we are going over the latest trend in AI and NLP, ChatGPT, with our guest, Sean Melis, seasoned multi-modal developer and designer and the founder of bot•hello.

In the beginning, Sean explains how chatbots work and the main difference between them and ChatGPT, explaining that ChatGPT leverages a huge dataset, unlike chatbots that use canned responses.

However, it is worthy of mention that although ChatGPT is very beneficial and could prove useful to a lot of people, it is still a computer. It might not always understand the context or the intonation behind a question and that’s the reason why it generates responses that sometimes don’t make much sense.

After that, Sean and Jason go over how you can use ChatGPT to tailor your resume and make it suitable for specific jobs and how you can understand and work around its limitations.

In the end, Sean highlights some advice on how to use ChatGPT and encourages everyone to experiment with it as it could be very helpful to save money and time.
