The company OpenAI introduced ChatGPT to the world. It is the latest type of AI chatboxes. A chatbox is a computer program just like human conversation. AI is also known as artificial intelligence. It uses algorithms. In other words, it teaches a machine to find out patterns and make decisions. Anyone can use ChatGPT for free now, so that the company can collect people’s ideas on how to improve the chatbot.

People have tested how ChatGPT works. Reporters found out that it was able to write articles with rightful opinions for newspapers. Teachers asked it to write answers to exam questions. ChatGPT could almost get full marks. Even programmers, people who write computer code, tried out ChatGPT. The chatbot is able to solve difficult coding challenges and answer very quickly. It even wrote short poems to explain how the coding worked. In daily life, it helped a father brainstorm ideas of a birthday party for his son that combines the kid’s two favourites, rabbits and basketball.

Moreover, when people ask ChatGPT questions, it can find mistakes. If it is asked what happened when Columbus arrived in America in 2023, older AIs might give a story. ChatGPT can recognize that Columbus reached America in the 1400s. The bot can also refuse to answer questions that are not proper. Ask it for advice on stealing a car, for example. The bot will say that stealing a car is a serious crime and can have bad results. Instead, it gives advice such as “taking the bus”.

ChatGPT might help people solve problems, but the AI is trained using texts from the Internet. Often, the texts are used without being allowed by the writers of those texts. Some argue that technology doesn’t respect people’s work. Some argue that people will use the chatbot to copy others’ work and sell it as their own. Elon Musk set up OpenAI in 2015, but left it in 2017. In 2022, he bought Twitter and then he pointed out that OpenAI could use the Twitter database for training in the past, but not for now. This AI technology is bad for the planet too. Training ChatGPT might make more than 284 tons of CO₂ and lead to climate change that will heat up the earth.

【推荐3】To make students have a happy and healthy life, los of schools offer some special lessons to make classes full of fun.

Many people have only seen bacteria (细菌) in biology books. However, students can also use these bacteria to create printings in class. They use bacteria to paint on different plates. They paint flowers, the Great Wall, cute pandas and other things.

First, students draw pictures with bacteria. Then they put them in a special box at 37℃. After three days, the bacteria grow according to the pictures.

“It sounds easy, but it’s not. When we drew he pictures with the bacteria solution (溶液), we often made mistakes. After many failures, we finally drew great paintings we like.” said student Li Baohao.

But Li thought it wasn’t perfect. Different bacteria have different colors, and they grow with different nutrients (营养物质). It was really difficult for students to put different bacteria on one plate, so they could only draw paintings in one color.

“The lesson is so fun and creative!” said another student. “It shows us that scientific experiments (实验) are not boring. Art and science can work together!”

In 1990, at Xichang Satellite Launch Center（西昌卫星发射中心）in Sichuan Province, the rocket “ ChangzhengIII” was sent successfully. It took a communicating satellite from the US to intended orbit (预定轨道).     2    

In 2003, Yang Liwei took “ShenzhouV” to the space.     3    . He spent 21 hours staying in the space,and returned the next day.

In 2008, “ShenzhouVII” carried three astronauts to the space. Zhai Zhigang walked out of the space ship.     4    

It’s our journey to the space. With the development of our country,     5    . The stronger our country is, the farther we will explore (探索) the universe.
