EDITOR BRIEF
ChatGPT began as a chatbot and demo for OpenAI’s large language models. It has grown into a broader AI platform that can browse the web, create images, write code, reason through problems, and carry out actions across apps. The excerpt says explaining how it works has become more difficult as new models and features have been added.
