To be fair, the name "ChatGPT" has quite a bit of mindshare and I've found many non-technical folks referring to any generative AI product as "ChatGPT" or "GPT". Yet, if you asked any single one of them what "GPT" stood for, they'd have no clue.
- JCharante 3y agoTo be fair, I'm a dev who uses chatgpt on an hourly basis and I had no idea what GPT stood for until I googled it just now. I think it's kinda smart to make people strongly associate GPT with OpenAI

- teg4n_ 3y agowhy would it be smart? people can advertise their own models as GPT because it’s a generic term and confuse people into thinking it’s an OpenAI thing
