We never thought we’d spend more time talking to a robot than our boss. But honestly, we’re not mad about it. 🤖

Getting an AI chatbot is like hiring an assistant, even though HR would never let you hire a real assistant. AI can help you think, research, write emails and reports, code, solve math problems, compose your own theme song (everyone needs one!) – by big, doing everything an assistant would do, short of bringing you a latte. ☕️

If you ask people to name an AI assistant, most people will say ChatGPT. ChatGPT is the Frisbee or Kleenex of AI tools, the brand that has dominated the field. It is one of the first AI chatbots widely available to the public.

It’s free and its responses have continued to improve with each update (first with GPT-3.5 then with GPT-4). But it’s not the only name in the AI ​​game.

A plethora of ChatGPT competitors have emerged. Some are designed to perform more specialized tasks than ChatGPT, others have additional features, and still others simply rely on different machine learning algorithms or are trained on different extended language models (LLMs). All of them give ChatGPT a hard time.
