OpenAI’s guide explains the basics of ChatGPT, a conversational AI assistant that can help users think, write, and solve problems using natural language. It highlights how people can use chat for quick answers, rewrites, brainstorming, and short drafts, while work mode is aimed at larger tasks that need a more structured output.
The guide also walks through starting a first conversation by entering a prompt, then refining the response with followup questions or added detail. It suggests beginning with familiar, lowrisk tasks such as drafting messages, summarizing information, or turning rough notes into clearer writing.
It also covers voice features in ChatGPT, including voice mode for twoway spoken conversation and dictation for turning speech into text. The article notes that voice can help with accessibility, multitasking, and handsfree workflows, and points readers to the AI Foundations course and OpenAI Help Center for more information.
