What's the story
OpenAI's interactive AI-based chatbot ChatGPT is the talk of the town. The Internet loves this chatbot that can code, tell stories, and write essays.
Now, the same experience is available on WhatsApp, courtesy of 'God In a Box.' The power of AI will be at the tip of your finger with the help of this chatbot.
Let's see what it's all about.
Context
Why does this story matter?
The ability to chat with an AI-based bot that can not only answer philosophical questions but can also plan your date is no small matter.
To do the same on the world's most popular instant messaging platform is an even bigger thing. 'God In a Box' has the potential to improve the utility of WhatsApp by many times.
Details
'God In a Box' is trained on ChatGPT-3.5
Like ChatGPT, 'God In a Box' is based on the GPT-3.5 model. Users will be able to use it the same way as ChatGPT.
It will answer user queries with the same human touch as ChatGPT.
However, unlike ChatGPT, 'God In a Box' is not free. Interested users will have to pay $9 (around Rs. 700) per month for the bot.

Implications

'God In a Box' has been introduced on WhatsApp instead of Telegram due to the former's high daily active users, said Mayya.
