Getting started with ChatGPT

什么是 ChatGPT ?

ChatGPT 是一个对话式人工智能助理，能够理解自然语言并实时生成类人回复，帮助你思考、写作和解决问题。

ChatGPT 建基于 大型语言模型（ large language models ），因此可以协助处理广泛的任务。想了解 大型语言模型 的更多信息，请参阅 “ What is AI ” 页面。

开始你的首次对话

打开 ChatGPT（在新窗口打开）。新会话已为你准备就绪。

要开始，只需输入一个提示（ prompt ）。提示是你用来与 ChatGPT 开启对话的问题或指令，通常为文字，也可以是图片、音频或文件。你的提示为模型提供方向，从而生成有用的回复。

不知道从何下手？复制并粘贴下面这个示例提示（把括号内替换为你的具体信息）来体验 ChatGPT 的能力：

告诉我如何用 ChatGPT 让我的生活更轻松。我是 [你的描述或职业]。给我 5 件现在就能做的事情，并为每件事提供一个提示。

阅读回复后，你可以通过追问或补充细节来细化结果。如果想尝试不同的提示风格，请参阅我们的 prompting guide。

寻找合适的使用场景

寻找有用的 ChatGPT 使用场景时，可从你已经以聊天形式完成的工作入手：起草稿件、头脑风暴、长文摘要、把草稿整理为更清晰的表述，或梳理问题思路。这类任务容易上手、风险低、能立刻见效——如果 ChatGPT 能帮你更快得到更好的初稿、整理思路或减少盯着空白页的时间，通常就说明该任务适合由它来辅助。

更有价值的使用场景往往是那些经常重复、包含多步骤或需要长期上下文的工作。此时，像 Projects、 custom GPTs 或 Skills 这样的工具就更有用：它们能帮助你整理素材、保持指令一致，并把一次性的提示变成可重复的工作流程。经验法则是：先从简单聊天任务开始，注意哪些操作会重复出现，然后为想要更快、更稳定或更高质量完成的工作，逐步搭建更有结构的方案。

在 ChatGPT 中使用语音

说话通常比打字更快，听觉互动也让交流更自然、双手解放。语音功能能在忙碌时节省时间，支持无障碍使用，并开启新的工作方式，例如随时头脑风暴、边做其他事边起草文稿，或大声练习演讲。

在 ChatGPT 中，语音功能允许你直接与 ChatGPT 对话并听取朗读回复，或使用语音转文字进行听写。通过聊天窗口上的图标，你可以在两种模式间切换： Voice Mode（双向对话，实时说话与听取）或 Dictation（把口述转为文字以便进一步编辑）。

界面上显示有“你在做什么？”的输入提示框，标签为“ Ask anything ”，右侧有麦克风与语音图标。

例如，你可以口述问题， ChatGPT 以对话形式回答；或口述会议纪要，快速生成书面摘要。

你与语音聊天产生的音频和视频片段会与转写内容一同保存到聊天历史中，并在该聊天保留期间持续保存。

What is ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a conversational AI assistant that helps you think, write, and solve problems by understanding natural language and generating human-like responses in real time.

ChatGPT is built on large language models, enabling it to assist with a wide range of tasks. Learn more about large language models in What is AI.

Navigate the ChatGPT interface

Take a look at the video below to learn about the different parts of the ChatGPT interface.

Start your first conversation

Open ChatGPT.⁠ A new chat is already waiting for you.

To get started, simply enter a prompt. A prompt is the question or instruction you type or share with ChatGPT to start a conversation. It is usually text, but it can also be an image, audio, file. Your prompt guides the model so it can generate a helpful reply.

Not sure where to begin? Copy and paste this prompt to see what ChatGPT can do for you (replace the brackets with more information about yourself): 

Tell me how I can use ChatGPT to make my life easier. I’m a [description of you or your job]. Give me 5 things I can do right now, and a prompt for each one. 

Read the response, then refine it by asking follow-up questions or adding more detail. If you're ready to start experimenting with different prompt styles, check out our prompting guide.

Finding good use cases for ChatGPT

A good way to find useful ChatGPT use cases is to start with work you already do in chat form: writing a draft, brainstorming ideas, summarizing something long, turning rough notes into a clearer message, or thinking through a problem. These are good early use cases because they are easy to try, low risk, and immediately useful. If ChatGPT helps you get to a better first draft faster, organize your thinking, or reduce time spent staring at a blank page, that is usually a strong signal that the task is a good fit.

From there, stronger use cases tend to be the ones that repeat often, involve multiple steps, or need context over time. That is where tools like Projects, custom GPTs, or Skills become more useful: they help you organize source materials, keep instructions consistent, and turn one-off prompts into repeatable workflows. A good rule of thumb is to start with simple chat tasks, notice what you do more than once, and then build toward more structured setups for work you want to do faster, more consistently, or at a higher quality.

Use voice in ChatGPT

Speaking is often faster than typing, and listening can make interactions more natural and hands‑free. Voice features save time during busy days, support accessibility, and unlock new workflows like brainstorming on the go, drafting documents while multitasking, or practicing presentations aloud. 

Voice in ChatGPT allows you to speak directly to ChatGPT and hear responses out loud, or use dictation to convert your spoken words into text. Using the icons on your chat window, you can choose between Voice Mode (a two‑way conversation where you talk and listen in real time) or Dictation (speak and see your words appear as text for further refinement). 

For example, you might ask a question aloud and ChatGPT responds conversationally, or dictate meeting notes to quickly generate a written summary.

Audio and video clips from your voice chats are stored alongside the transcription in your chat history and are retained as long as the chat remains in your history.
