I don’t know much about computers, but I use ChatGPT a lot, exploring and considering multiple possibilities. I think they want to improve the AI further to solve problems. I’ve noticed that the advertisements (at least in my country, Spain) mostly promote it as an excellent tool for work—Word, Excel, mathematical tasks, writing, etc.
But honestly, it’s pretty bad at those. I’m not very good with technology, and I’ve tried several times to create an Excel sheet by giving it data, but it just doesn’t work. It spends hours processing only to produce a result full of zeros or just include two pieces of data.
It has many strengths that have nothing to do with those kinds of tasks, especially in how it handles information, expresses ideas, or understands what you’re asking for. As a user, I can see that with a few improvements, it could get much better.
Maybe they want to build a solid foundation first before continuing to improve it in the areas where it already performs well. That’s just my theory—who knows what direction they’ll take? Whether they’ll aim for an AI that interacts with people in a human-like way or push ChatGPT more towards becoming an unbeatable work tool.
