We have all seen the excitement around ChatGPT, an AI chatbot created by OpenAI. It has gained popularity, and there are around 100 million users, including myself. I use this chatbot for various tasks like generating content ideas, writing emails, and solving Google Sheets formulas that I find tricky.
