No matter how hard I racked my brains, I couldn’t come up with the right words to describe something. Wouldn’t it be a lot less of a hassle if there was software that could write for us based on the information we provide? With a tutorial on how to use the OpenAI GPT-3, that’s exactly what we’ll look at this week.
