I tried OpenAI's ChatGPT 2 years ago. I'm terrified by how far it's come and think it could change my job.

• When ChatGPT was released to the public, I checked in to see how it had evolved.

Two years ago, I was a ghostwriter for a company that was licensed to use what was then called GPT-3, developed by OpenAI.
