Transcripts
so is it worth it to get chat jpt plus
I'll go through some of the features
here and how to use it we'll first start
out by talking about what is offered by
the chat GPT Plus subscription and there
are a few features and plus is currently
$20 a month here's what you get with the
free access which is access now to the
GPT 3.5 model you'll notice that this
got faster much faster than what it was
before but on top of this you get GPT 4
their most capable model chat with imag
voice and creating images you can build
and use custom gpts and everything else
that the free includes now one of the
biggest things that's not labeled on
here that will review is the fact that
you're capped or limited to the amount
of messages you can write in a 3-hour
period and chat gbt plus was released to
us nearly a year ago now one other thing
I want to add to this plus is the fact
that you get General access to jat gbt
even during peak times occasionally not
as much anymore you'll get throttled by
the free version not letting you sign in
because there are way too many people
online using chat GPT anyways let's move
on to checking out chat GPT plus and
using its features here's what the
screen looks like whenever you load chat
GPT plus you'll notice a very similar
screen a welcome screen by the chatbot
where you can enter in your messages but
you'll also notice a new icon a few
recommendations and then on the left
hand side some new buttons including
explore and we'll talk about about these
few features in a moment but one of the
biggest differences is something to
notice up top if we click down on this
we'll notice two varying models the GPT
3.5 says great for everyday tasks and
GPT 4 with delay browsing and Analysis
the limit is 40 messages per 3 hours now
this is the limit that I was talking
about before it's very important to
understand that you can only use the
more powerful updated model with a limit
of 40 different messages in 3 hours
hours now here's something interesting
that 40 per 3 hours isn't always the
case now you aren't always limited to
this number it's more like a variable
sometimes it goes up and down and that's
based on the current load of their
servers and systems meaning sometimes I
can get away with doing much more than
40 messages per the three-hour period
other times I can't but do understand
that this is a important consideration
to take are you going to be using the
GPT form model extensively well if you
do you might be better off not paying
the $20 per month and instead going to a
token subscription using their API we'll
talk about this in a few moments but
let's continue on understanding the
features and benefits here of chat GPT
plus because there are quite a few let's
start out with a prompt in chat GPT 3.5
so so we can do a comparison so if we do
why are chat gpt's resources limited
let's see if it can explain that to us
and we can see how quickly it it
responds back to us in the chat GPT 3.5
model quite quick and it gives us some
great information such as technical
constraints cost accessibility and
scalability and then gives us a synopsis
at the very end of the four things that
it spit out to us now let's try this
with the plus model chat GPT 4 all right
if I hit new chat here that's going to
create a whole new chat for me I can now
put the same prompt in press enter and
what you'll notice right off the bat is
that chat pt4 is much slower than the
3.5 turbo Edition I do believe they're
going to come out with a turbo Edition
with chat GPT 4 in the future but
understand that it is slower so in some
cases you may or may not want to use 3.5
over the four model because it can get
you answers quicker meaning you can
reiterate over things in a much faster
Manner and if you need something like
that it's actually nicer to use 3.5 5 I
find myself using 3.5 just as much as
four for some of my tasks anyways with
that being said we do get a more verbose
and thoughtful response from the for
model notice it says computational
resources cost management quality
control preventing misuse technical
stability data management ethical
considerations and of course our summary
at the end you'll notice at the bottom
you can actually regenerate things like
or dislike output and even copy which is
one of my favorite features down here at
the bottom because yes you could copy
code but it was really hard to copy the
output from the chatbot before when it
comes to Everyday language now you can
simply click the button and paste it
into whatever you need it's also nice to
be able to paste it and then ask
specific questions when need be make
sure that you notice those it's a nice
feature anyways what I've noticed
between the two models you do get an
improvement in speed with 3.5 but
there's a considerable change in the
quality of code with chat GPT 4 because
it uses better context clues with the
newer model we could do something like
create a basic Tick Tac Toe program in
some language we'll do in C++ we'll do
that to both four first starting with
chat GPT 4 which you get with the plus
Edition all right it's off and it's
writing out the code for us now again
it's going to be slower than that 3.5
model one thing I definitely want people
to understand when getting the plus
because if speed is important to you it
might be a big consideration to not
actually get the plus Edition at least
for now but if you want a better
understanding model and the ability to
continue with output plus might be great
for you anyways let's look over this
code real quick they create a board
check if there's a winner check if the
board is full and here's the main
function which it keeps track of things
let's ask 3.5 the same question and see
the difference again notice it's much
quicker here it takes much less time to
make the code all right this time we
have display board which we had another
one check for a win check draw and a
main function now the for model does
seem a little more concise I can tell in
the main function there's there's less
code and more understandable functions
as you go through the syntax is a little
bit better as you can tell here there's
a little bit of a jumble going on of
information especially when you look at
this Vector of vectors that are storing
characters I don't like how they
approach that instead here they specify
a typical board with with a square size
which since we understand the layout of
tic-tac-toe it's much better to do it
this way instead of the vector of
vectors at least in my opinion I believe
that over complicates things anyways now
you can kind of tell the difference
between chat GPT 3.5 and chat GPT 4
which you get with the plus Edition it
is a little more concise and thoughtful
especially when it comes to writing code
now I do want to talk about some of the
limitations here one thing that I've
done to test jetp T4 is to test out how
many tokens we can output or basically
tokens are attached to words so if I do
something like give me
120 Linux commands please don't repeat
let's see what it can do for me and
you'll notice after a while a limit will
be reached here I got to 118 out of the
120 that I wanted so we're going to
check what limit that looks like it's
really a limit of how many words or
characters you're going to get but the
nice part is you can just continue
generating things and it will keep going
from where it was last at without
actually creating a new message or
anything like that so that's fantastic
news as well this is a great feature
especially when you're conversing or
asking for a lot of information but
since we don't really have a clear
understanding of limits right now I'm
going to throw this into their tokenizer
so we can understand how many characters
and tokens this prompt would have taken
with the 3.5 and the four models anyways
it looks like around 1,500 tokens and
5700 characters of output were made
before the model decided to stop giving
information and before having to hit
continue so we can expect the token
amount to let's say roughly be somewhere
between 1,600 and maybe 2,000 tokens
roughly in that ball park of how much
information you get back from the model
before it decides to stop giving you
information there is some type of a
limit here let's maybe call it between
5,500 to 6,000 characters I do want you
to be aware of this limit and if it is
something that you're worried about you
can check out some other models as well
as the ability to use a larger token
limit but you have to use the API what
I'm showing you here is the limits for
the API there's two ways of using the
API that's writing your own code and not
using chat GPT Plus or you can actually
use their playground to accomplish the
same thing but you will be charged per
thousand tokens and you may or may not
want to use the plus model just looking
at a couple of these we'll look at the
turbo model you have 40,000 tokens per
minute as a limit okay now understanding
those limitations let's move on to some
exciting things that chat jpt plus gives
us which might make it well worth the
$20 per month fee but if you haven't
already make sure to smash that like
button for me so others can decide
whether or not it's worth it for them to
buy chat GPT plus if we move over to the
left in chat GPT plus you'll notice an
explore button this is where you can
actually see varying different things
they call gpts these are your own custom
gpts which are really just creating your
own custom version of chat GPT these
gpts can combine things like
instructions and extra information like
your own data sets or any combination of
skills that you might want the chatbot
to be specialized in I'll quickly go
through how to create a GPT but there's
already some offered directly by open AI
which are fantastic Del data analyst and
web browser those are fantastic ones
I've used all all three and I got to say
data analyst is pretty good if you have
some sort of a spreadsheet you can
actually attach it by clicking this
button right here such as a spreadsheet
and then you can ask questions about
that spreadsheet for example I'm going
to throw in some information from my
YouTube channel then I'm going to query
the message data analyst about some
information what is the best performing
video when it comes to views for the
month and we'll see if it comes back
with the right answer now what's
interesting about data analyst with the
Plus subscription is it first tells you
what steps it's going to take in order
to analyze your file that you've
uploaded and then it talks about how it
analyzes that file specifically so it
says that it's going to look at things
like video title and video publish time
views and other metrics for video
performance now that I couldn't find
what I wanted it's because I wasn't
specific enough I want for the month of
December
2023 let's see if it can give me an
answer this is what's wonderful about
the data analyst it actually works back
and forth with you analyzing the data
and correcting your input and explaining
it logically how it's going to analyze
things that way you can figure out if
it's about to mess things up and if its
thought process actually makes sense the
best performing video in terms of
December 2023 is poos Cosmic desktop
built on Rust when it was published on
December 19th 2023 it generated 14,000
500 views which is correct and is
fantastic because this allows you to
analyze all sorts of data that's not
only tied to just copying pasting
information into chat GPT but instead
pulling files in and analyzing those
files these could be other types of
files as well it's not just limited to
Excel spreadsheets and that's why these
gpts are so powerful up at the top
you'll always be able to find varying
different options like about copy a link
share the chat or a new chat share
chat's nice because if you want to share
a chat with maybe a team member or you
just want to give it to somebody else so
they can analyze the information this is
across the board available you can
simply copy the link and give it to
somebody now let's check out DOL now
this is an improvement from the last
time that I did a video like this now
for the $20 per month subscription you
also get an image generation model
because overall it does a really good
job and lets you render images fairly
quick but is definitely neat feature to
come with the chat GPT Plus subscription
so let's try it out first I'm going to
put something in that's fairly vague but
I think it gets a point across I'm going
to put make a wonderful landscape full
of snow and mountains that has a Serene
feel with the magical backdrop like
another planed in Stars let's see what
it comes up with Once Dolly starts it's
going to say creating image and you can
actually see the current progress by
looking at the icon and seeing how much
of a ring it has filled in it's about
halfway done right now it does take a
little while this took me about 30
seconds which isn't all bad you can put
your thoughts in if you want but you get
two image Renditions both on the left
and right and you can specify whether
you liked one or not and then you can
download each image individually I like
the one on the right hand side a little
more it's got a little more color looks
like the sun is shining in a little bit
better there's a huge mountainscape in
the background let's click on this one
to get a better view in order to
download things you can click this
button up here on the right hand side
and that will download it to your
computer so you have a full resolution
image and or you can click this one on
the right what it actually prompted how
it improved your own prompt in order to
make this image and now you can take
this prompt copy it and then go back and
maybe change something for example I'm
going to put lava here and then
regenerate this to see what it looks
like instead why I like this option is
because Del likes to take your image and
and fill in more context clues for
itself so it can make a better
prediction on what you want sometimes
that's wrong so it's fantastic to see
how it thought it should generate the
image and then it gives you the option
to easily change that image up look at
that on the right hand side now that's
looking pretty cool quite an awesome
looking landscape very hot and cold so
those are two models that are given to
you but it's not my favorite my favorite
is the web browser no longer are the
days where the model is just limited to
the model data it was trained on we had
this issue with
3.5 where it was trained up to I believe
it was like 20121 with data so anything
new it didn't really have a notion or
understanding of with the Plus
subscription you get access to these
gpts and one of them is called web
browser which searches the web for
results as well so for example what's
some of the latest news in Linux let's
see it browse the web for us and see if
it can give me correct news and to tell
what this looks like it does do a few
things for you one it tells you where
it's searching it also CES things which
is nice and three it allows you to
gather new data and revise information
as needed now it's going to me quite a
lot I can always stop it from generating
things but I'm just going to look at the
first few things so kernel 6.7 release
great gnome 46 desktop environment yep
that's new Linux 21.3 though Yep looks
like it's giving me some accurate data
and then it gives me a brief summary on
things that are happening in the Linux
World fantastic news for those of you
who want to work on data that is current
you can now have chat GPT search the web
if you're using the plus Edition now I
know we went through a lot of things and
there are a lot of options including
creating your own gpts we can create a
GPT and this actually walks you through
things let's say I want to build a GPT
which is a parrot that talks back to me
I'm just going to tell the GPT Builder I
want want a parrot that talks back to me
and says funny things occasionally let's
see if we can do this the process is not
the fastest but you can imagine the very
specific scenarios when which you can
use it suggests a name called chatty
parrot sounds good to me so I'm just
going to say sounds good and it's
getting things ready here on the right
hand side says a playful parrot that
chats and makes witty humorous remarks
fantastic and it even gives suggestions
on what you could ask this new GPT that
we're creating now it's actually
generating a profile picture for us this
is another thing that you can definitely
use in the plus model this profile
picture looks great let's use it is
there any topics it should focus on or
avoid no all is good so we're going to
let it freestyle as much as it wants any
interactive style says should it ask for
clarification directly make an educated
guess based on the context I'm just
going to say educated guesses are fine
so the GPT is getting smarter and
smarter as it goes and is being built
I'm going to say I want it to be all
three of these dramatic sarcastic and
cheerful okay and it says what's ready
now it can be interacted with in the
playground so let's start with this one
right here parrot what do you think
about cats and there you go we've
configured our own GPT and we can keep
interacting with this anyways you can
also share these with everyone anyone
with the link or with yourself that way
you understand what these gpts are and
how they can be beneficial this is a
silly example but now you can understand
how these gpts are built and how you can
potentially use them with the plus
Edition now let's summarize and talk
about the pros and the cons of the chat
GPT Plus subscription one pro is with
the chat GPT 4 model you'll get more
accurate results plainly because it's a
smarter model two one con is that the
chat GPT 4 compared to three turbo well
four is slower so you don't gain much of
a benefit as as far as speed goes
getting Plus at least as of right now
another plus is you get to create your
own gpts using the new model framework
which allows you to create and save
basically roles that you have for your
own AI model or an easy way to create
tasks which are repetitive and you can
even share them with multiple people
they can be quite powerful another Pro
is the fact that you can now use and
create
images with the Plus subscription and
chat GPT which makes it much more
powerful and you get more use out of
your subscription another con is the
fact that you have a 40 message limit on
using the chat GPT for model per every 3
hours another con here is even with the
latest model you don't get an exorb
amount of token output I would like the
ability to get much more more output
instead of having to hit continue in
order for the model to keep working on
the task at hand a few more Pros though
is seven now you have web access with
the chatbot models which makes them much
more powerful with the ability to get
and access current data or events and
finally number eight is the ability to
analyze and specifically I'm talking
files spreadsheets Etc you can imagine
how great that is for those of us who
need to investigate some sort of
information and it's already available
in some sort of specific format now you
don't need to copy and paste things over
to chat jpt and make sure that it can
understand and analyze those things
instead you have the ability to Simply
hit the upload button at the bottom and
then ask questions on that particular
file or spreadsheet anyways these are
some of the main pros and cons of using
the subscription
model called chat GPT plus let me know
if you plan on using it in the comments
section below I'd love to hear from you
are there any things that I missed or
ways that you like to use chat GPT and
would like others to know about $20 a
month can be pretty steep it's been well
worth it for me using plus over the last
few months hopefully this allows you to
decide whether or not you really need
chat gbt plus and you got to see the
back end of chat GPT plus and the chat
GPT for model that you get access to
including the custom gpts let me know if
you now plan on getting it make sure to
subscribe below don't forget to hit that
like button catch me in a great
community on Discord and I'll catch you
in another video thanks for watching
