How to create a ChatGPT (OpenAI) account

In early 2023, ChatGPT started going viral on forums and social networks, especially in groups related to Marketing and technology; lucid Gen also found it good to start learning. To use, we need to create a ChatGPT account with multiple steps of email and phone number verification. Many people think that it is too intelligent, it can be a product to replace Google, or it can replace human content creators quickly. So, how true is it? Let’s discover ChatGPT through this article on Lucid Gen.

What is ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a product of OpenAI, a company specializing in artificial intelligence (AI). ChatGPT can answer many complex questions from many fields coherently and straight to the point of the question. In addition to answering questions, ChatGPT is very helpful in giving ideas or advice. Although ChatGPT has learned all of humanity’s knowledge until the most recent year, it cannot answer questions regarding future events.

Personal experience with ChatGPT

After creating a ChatGPT account and using it for a few days, Lucid Gen would like to give a few personal reviews as follows:

Good points

• Answer directly to the problem: I think this one is good because it saves us the trouble of searching in many places and a lot of time reading and synthesizing. However, search, and aggregation skills are still essential; these skills should not be lost because of using AI.
• The answer is coherent and clear: I had to “Oh wow” with ChatGPT when I first used it; the way it presented the responses was straightforward to read and understand. It even left comments to explain in its suggested code snippets.
• Can answer questions to find answers: There are subtle answers, and you can hardly find answers from Google and many websites.
• Write clean code: For questions related to code, such as Python programming, ChatGPT will give you an elegant sample code.
• Ability to think to answer: With questions related to situations and numbers, ChatGPT can analyze and give answers with clear explanations. This is something that Google has not done yet.
• More replies can be added: If you don’t like an answer by ChatGPT, you can ask it to give you another solution.
• Can learn while chatting with us: During the Q&A, ChatGPT is also learning from your responses. If the two work well together, it can intelligently answer questions later.

Bad points

• Often stopped before replying: Many complain that ChatGPT is stopped before replying. Lucid Gen also encountered this situation in Vietnamese, which is less common in English.
• Sometimes wrong answers: Because ChatGPT only relearns human knowledge to answer, sometimes it also gives wrong answers. For example, when Lucid Gen asks him to code a piece of Python, that code may not be correct, unusable, or modified to be usable.

How to create a ChatGPT account step by step

Create a OpenAI account

Step 1: Visit the chatgpt.com page and select Sign up to create a ChatGPT account.

Step 2: Enter your email and click Continue to create a ChatGPT account. You should not use the method of signing up with Google or Microsoft because you may not be able to get the password when you need it; Lucid Gen encountered this situation when he wanted to share the account with friends.

Step 3: Set a password for your ChatGPT account with at least eight characters.

Step 4: Open your email to get the email verification message. You can click Resend email if you do not receive an email from OpenAI.

Step 5: Click the Verify email address button to verify your email with OpenAI.

Step 6: Click the login button to log in with the ChatGPT account created after successful email verification.

Verify phone number by SMS service

Step 7: Enter your full name when you first log in to ChatGPT and click the Continue button.

Step 8: Enter your phone number to verify the phone number.

Congratulation! At this point, you have successfully created a ChatGPT or OpenAI account. Let’s start exploring it!

How to use ChatGPT

First, choose Dark mode or keep Light mode to suit your vision. Then send ChatGPT a question and wait for it to respond. If you are unsatisfied with that answer, click the Regenerate response button to have ChatGPT give you another answer.

Ask questions on the same topic in a chat session so that ChatGPT can learn and understand your wishes. If you have a question on a different topic, creating a new chat session would be better.

ChatGPT also supports many other languages, such as Vietnamese. However, the response speed will be much slower, and sometimes it will be stopped when the reply has not been completed. If you find yourself in this situation, text ChatGPT to “continue your answer”, and it will complete the missing reply.

If you get an error while chatting and can’t request ChatGPT Regenerate response, please revisit the ChatGPT homepage to eliminate this error.

Frequently asked questions

Can ChatGPT replace Google?

From Lucid Gen’s point of view, it is not possible. The most basic reason is that AI has to learn human-generated content; without Google and websites powered by humans, AI wouldn’t be able to learn much new knowledge. There are also many other reasons related to our habits, such as: citing the source of knowledge, discussing with each other on forums, searching and synthesizing.

Can ChatGPT replace content creators?

Cannot. ChatGPT is a good tool for us to refer to ideas, but it cannot do the content completely (For example, write an article like this). The first is that its style is entirely mechanical, and the second is that there is nothing “creative” because it only takes the content of previous creators to learn and answer for you, so you do not create new value for the reader.

ChatGPT is stopped when not replying; what to do?

You can message “reply to the above comment” so that ChatGPT can complete the unfinished answer. Asking in English will also help you avoid this error.

Conclusion

It can be said that the process of creating a ChatGPT account is the most elaborate and most extended ever that Lucid Gen knows. Many obstacles to using the correct IP and SMS verification are confusing, so not everyone can create a ChatGPT account. Do you see the future with ChatGPT?
