What is the ChatGPT artificial intelligence model, and how do you benefit from it in managing your WordPress site?

If you want to perform any task on your website and do not have enough technical experience to perform it, you can search the Internet for articles explaining how to perform it, or hire an expert to do it, or as a modern alternative to that, you can ask the artificial intelligence ChatGPT that OpenAI recently launched about it. In this article, we will highlight the ChatGPT artificial intelligence model, explain how you can start using it, and explain the most important tasks that it can help to implement, in addition to how to benefit from it to manage, improve, and develop a WordPress site. We will also take a look at the limits of its capabilities.

What is ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence (AI) model launched by OpenAI, a company specializing in artificial intelligence research, in late November 2022. It can interact with written language in a human-like manner, and is represented in the form of a chatbot that users can talk to based on text messages, where you can ask it questions and get appropriate answers, or even ask it to perform tasks. ChatGPT can perform almost any text-related task, not just answering questions, including writing articles and poems, preparing research papers, doing paraphrasing, translating sentences and texts, summarizing articles, solving mathematical equations, and even writing and explaining code.

It can't do all of this as well as professional humans can, but it actually does very well. The ChatGPT artificial intelligence model is an intelligent chatbot. The ChatGPT model is part of a broader set of technologies developed by OpenAI, which is considered a new generation of artificial intelligence systems that can speak and create images and videos based on the huge amount of information and sources they have learned from. However, unlike many previous systems, it is available for free use in a large number of countries in the world, and will become available in the rest of the countries in the near future.

Note: In ChatGPT, (Chat) refers to the way artificial intelligence is used (i.e. chat), while GPT is an abbreviation for the phrase (Generative Pre-trained Transformer), which in Arabic means generative pre-trained transformer, which is a language model that uses deep learning algorithms to generate human-like text.

The benefits of the ChatGPT artificial intelligence model are the main benefits

Which can be obtained by relying on ChatGPT in the ability to request anything related to the language from it and obtain the appropriate result, including but not limited to the following: 1. Answering specific questions Providing answers to questions in various fields is one of the tasks that the program excels at implementing, as you can ask it the question you want in Arabic, English, or other languages, and get an accurate answer to it within a few seconds. Notice in the following image we asked ChatGPT a specific question: (How many floors does Burj Khalifa have?

What are the features of the tower? He gave us a detailed answer and mentioned some additional information. ChatGPT's artificial intelligence program can answer specific questions in almost any field. Note: It is preferable to use English when speaking with ChatGPT, because it does not master other languages ​​to the same degree as it does English, and it is possible that you will get wrong answers or that are not related to your question when using Arabic.

That's why you'll notice that in our practical examples in this article we used English to talk to the program and not Arabic. 2. Text translation The artificial intelligence program ChatGPT is capable of translating texts and words between languages, but unfortunately it is not as proficient in translation as the specialized translation programs that have been working in this field for years, such as Google Translate. However, this is not strange in reality, as it has been working for only a few weeks, and it is not specialized in translation.

We asked the program to translate the previous message it sent, which talked about the number of floors of Khalifa Tower and its features, and this was the result. ChatGPT has limited ability to translate text3.

Helping to write articles and research ChatGPT's capabilities allow it to help you write articles, research, etc. You can ask it to write an entire article on a specific topic, and it will do that directly, or you can use it to obtain information or find out about reliable sources that you can rely on to write your article or research. In the following image, we asked the program to write a short article about WordPress, and it responded to our request directly, and the information it included in the article was useful and presented in a good and appropriate way.

A short article about WordPress written by ChatGPT directly after we asked it to do so. 4. Summarizing or paraphrasing texts You can use the ChatGPT artificial intelligence model to summarize or paraphrase various types of texts, including articles, papers, paragraphs, and more.

All you have to do is ask him to do this and attach the text that you would like him to summarize or rephrase in one message, and he will do it directly, as in this picture. Paraphrasing a short paragraph by an AI bot ChatGPT 5.

Solving mathematical equations and problems. The ChatGPT program can solve and explain complex and simple mathematical equations and mathematical problems. When you send an equation or a problem and ask it to solve it, it directly provides you with an appropriate solution with a detailed explanation. It can also provide more than one solution method if you ask it to do so. In order to test and evaluate the program's prowess in solving mathematical equations and problems, we asked it to solve a group of them, and it always responded by sending a correct solution. The following image shows one of the problems that we asked the program to solve (calculating the measures of the angles of a triangle with known side lengths), in addition to the correct solution that it sent us.

Solving a mathematical problem with ChatGPT 6. Writing and explaining code Writing and explaining code is one of the tasks that the ChatGPT program masters with great professionalism, as you can ask it to write any code you need and it will do so accurately and in the programming language you want. If you do not know how to use the code it provided, or want to make modifications to it, you can ask it to teach you how to use it or make modifications to it.

You can request the code in detail, or in general. For example, you can ask the program to write the code for a web page that includes a contact form by sending a statement (I want the code for a web page that includes a contact form that requires the user to enter his name, email, and the message he would like to send), or you can simply send (I want the code for a web page that includes a contact form that enables the user to communicate with the site administration). That a ChatGPT AI model can respond to code requests generally suggests that it can think and has a sense of creativity (e.g., you could say “beautify the contact form with CSS”), but its thinking is certainly not the same as the thinking process of humans, and its ability to be creative, although quite impressive, falls short of the creativity of professional designers. We asked the robot to write a code for a web page that included a contact form. He sent us a set of simple steps attached to the codes. After applying those steps and using the codes he provided, we obtained the contact form shown in the following image.

Contact form created based on ChatGPT We tested some things in the form and noticed that some functions were missing (such as checking that the email field contains an actual email), so we asked him to add them, and he did so immediately. It is worth noting that the program supports writing code in a large number of programming languages, including but not limited to: Python – Java – JavaScript.

– PHP – Ruby – Kotlin – Swift – Go – Visual Basic, and many others. We would also like to point out that the program is not capable of writing complex integrated programs on its own without your guidance, requests to correct errors, etc., but it can write simple programs that perform a few specific functions on its own without any assistance. We asked it to write a program that runs through the browser (a web page) and enables the user to draw through a set of commands, so he did that.

Create and use a ChatGPT account In order to be able to use and talk to the ChatGPT AI chatbot, you need to create an account on its website. Requirements for creating an account on the site include only an email address (e.g., Google or Microsoft account), as well as a phone number to receive a verification code. To create an account with ChatGPT, go to the ChatGPT page on the OpenAI website by clicking here, then click on the (TRY CHATGPT) button to go to the website that provides access to ChatGPT.

Click on the (TRY CHATGPT) button to go to its website. After clicking on (TRY CHATGPT), a page will appear that verifies the security of the connection, and the verification process will take only a few seconds. You will then be directed directly to a page that enables you to log in or create an account in the ChatGPT linguistic artificial intelligence model.

To create a new account, click on the (Sign up) button. Clicking on the Sign up button to register in ChatGPT will take you directly to the account creation page, and you can create a new account in more than one way, as:

You can enter your email in the designated field, confirm that you are a human by placing a check mark next to the phrase (I am not a robot), then entering the password, then going to your email inbox, opening the message received from Open AI, and clicking on the verification button.

Create an account in ChatGPT through email

Or you can simply click on (Continue with Google) or (Continue with Microsoft Account) to bypass the email verification process and register by relying on your Google or Microsoft account. After you click on the Register through Google or Microsoft button, choose the account you want to register with and follow the next steps below. Buttons to register in the program through a Google or Microsoft account

After clicking the Verify Email button or registering through your Google or Microsoft account, you will be directed to a page asking you to enter your name and last name. Enter what is required and click the Continue button.

Enter your name and nickname and click the Continue button

A page will appear asking you to enter your phone number in order to send it a short verification message (SMS). Choose your country, enter your phone number, then click the Continue button, and on the next page enter the 6-digit code that the program sent you, and you will be transferred directly to the interface of the artificial intelligence program ChatGPT.

Interface of the artificial intelligence program ChatGPT and an explanation of how to use it

You can now use the program and benefit from it according to what you want, and in the future you will be able to go to the program interface in order to use it by visiting this link, or by clicking on the (TRY CHATGPT) button that we mentioned previously. Uses of the artificial intelligence model ChatGPT in WordPress Because ChatGPT is very adept at writing code and has extensive experience in WordPress and most programs and systems related to information technology and many others, and because it is a linguistic intelligence model capable of understanding what a person needs when talking to him, it can be greatly benefited from in WordPress in many ways, including: Making modifications to the appearance of the site You can benefit from ChatGPT to make modifications to the appearance of your website, so if you want, for example, to change the color of a button, title, paragraph, or any other element on your site, or Change its appearance, add more formatting or remove some, ChatGPT can help you with that.

We created a WordPress website

Experimental, where we installed the famous Jannah template on it, added some content to it, and adjusted some appearance settings to suit the site with a green visual identity, but the article titles were appearing in black, and we would like them to appear green. We asked ChatGPT to help us make it appear in this color, so he sent us a CSS code that does the job along with some instructions and directions explaining how to use it and where, in addition to notes that you should know about the code, such as that it will affect all the titles of the site’s articles, with an explanation of how to make it affect only one title if we want that.

ChatGPT explained how to change the colors of article titles based on our request to write WordPress codes to perform specific tasks. If you want code for WordPress that performs a specific task, ChatGPT can help you in this case as well, whether what you want is related to the appearance of the site, or to automating some tasks, or even adding new functions to WordPress. We asked the program for code that would run on WordPress and add a custom section in the component editor

The writer is allowed to insert the price of the article after he finishes writing it. He directed us to an add-on that would allow us to add fields to the component editor, but because we did not want to use an add-on, we asked for the code again, emphasizing that we wanted a code and not an add-on. He provided us with a code and asked us to add it to the template functions file (functions.php) to show the price entry section in the component editor. The code that ChatGPT sent at our request is code to add a custom field that allows the writer to insert the price of the article. After copying and pasting the code into the template functions file, we entered the component editor to make sure that the code works correctly. We actually found a section that provides the ability to insert the price of the article.

We entered a number and clicked the save button. Then we exited the editor and re-entered the same article editing page. We found that the number we entered was present in the field as it was, without being changed or deleted. The code for adding a section to insert the price of the article in WordPress worked correctly. We also carried out another set of experiments to ensure the quality of the code and that it always works correctly. The result was that we did not find any errors in it, as it performed the function it was created to perform perfectly.

In order to develop the functionality that was added to the site, we asked ChatGPT for another code that would allow the site administrator to display a report on the balances of all the site’s writers. He provided us with a code that would perform the task and asked us to add it to the template’s functions file (functions.php). He also explained how to access the report, as he had added a sub-item in the (Home) tab in the side menu called (Writer Report), and when we click on it, we are directed to a page that includes the report. The report that was added to the WordPress control panel to display the balances of all site writers Note:

In order for the report to be filled out (so that it does not appear empty), we added a group of members with the rank of writer to the site, added some articles to them and inserted a value into the article price field created earlier. The report did not look good, and it was not easy to understand and track book credits as a result, so we asked the program to improve its appearance. It sent us the CSS code, asked us to include it in the (Additional CSS formats) field in the customizer, and also asked us to replace one line of the previous code with another line that it provided us with.

Although we implemented all the directions and instructions he sent, nothing happened to the appearance of the table displaying the book balance information, so we reported this to him, and he directed us to check a number of things, but this did not result in resolving the problem in the end. Therefore, we asked the program to send the CSS code within the custom code to display the report, and it did so, and when we replaced the new code with the old code in the template functions file, the appearance of the table was modified, and it became easier to understand.

The appearance of the book balances report after formatting is added to it

We can continue to develop the functionality in the same way. For example, we can ask it to allow the site administrator to show the writer's articles and their prices when clicking on his name, and add a section that allows the administrator to enter the value of an amount of money to be deducted from the writer's total balance (for example, when a payment is sent to the writer). We can also change the language of the function, the alignment of its elements, etc. as we wish. Help to develop WordPress plugins and templates If you are a WordPress developer, or even if you are an ordinary WordPress user with simple programming experience, you can rely on the ChatGPT artificial intelligence model to help you develop plugins.

And templates. As we saw in the previous paragraph, he is very proficient in writing WordPress codes, and this will help a lot in creating plugins and templates. In order to request the program's help in creating an add-on that performs any task you want, whether it is related to the front end, the back end, or both, all you have to do is ask for the steps to create the add-on with the codes.

You can use the expression you want when requesting the steps to develop the add-on, but keep in mind that ChatGPT will provide you with detailed steps with basic codes at the beginning, that is, when you apply the steps and copy and paste the codes it provides according to the instructions it shows, you will get a primitive add-on, not advanced, but you can try it and ask it to develop it gradually. ChatGPT can help you develop WordPress templates and plugins. For example, if you ask the program for an add-on that provides the ability to replace phrases in WordPress content, it may provide you with an add-on that works through a page dedicated to it, and not through a section that is included on the article editing page. Then you can ask it to make an amendment by sending, for example, (I want the user to be able to make the replacement through a section that appears on the article edit page). After he answers you, you can continue the process of developing the add-on by asking him to add new functions to it, improve it, and so on until it becomes like this. Which you want.

The same applies to WordPress templates as well, as you can use ChatGPT to help you develop a template in the same way, but we must point out that creating an integrated template (or even an integrated plugin that does a non-simple function) based on this artificial intelligence alone is not possible, as you must have good experience in developing WordPress, and this is due to reasons that you will discover when you try it, such as: the inability to send a large number of messages in a short period of time - the inability to send very long messages - the difficulties of talking to him, and others. So if you want to use ChatGPT to create a plugin that performs a simple function or functions, you may succeed, or you may not succeed because some of the code provided by the program does not work (even if they are few), but if you try to create an integrated WordPress theme or a plugin that performs a complex function without having enough experience, you will certainly not be able to do that.

As a practical example of developing a simple plugin based on the program, you can see this topic. Understanding WordPress code and its purpose If you are unable to understand a specific WordPress code, or any other code, you can ask the ChatGPT program to explain it to you and teach you what its purpose is, by sending it to it with the phrase (What does this code do?) or any other appropriate phrase. Note that sometimes it may be better to inform the program of any important information related to the code that you have, as this can help it understand the code better, and thus explain it to you more accurately.

In order to test how well the program explained the WordPress-related code, we downloaded a WordPress plugin, then opened one of its files (a PHP file), copied an excerpt from it, and asked the program (what does this code do?) attaching the code to the message. It explained it with very high quality, as it sent the general function of it, and what exactly each part of it does, in addition to notes related to it. An explanation of the artificial intelligence program for one of the WordPress codes. After that, we asked the program (Do you know which plugin this code belongs to?), and its answer was (The name of the plugin is not mentioned in the code snippet, but from the string used (rank-math), it appears that it is part of the Rank Math plugin, which is an plugin used to optimize website content for search engines).

ChatGPT's answer to the question about the source of the code indicates that the program is also good at explaining code and knowing its source, so you can use it to obtain information about code you own or find out its purpose, and how to make modifications to it if you want to. Knowing the steps to do anything in WordPress. The capabilities of the ChatGPT artificial intelligence model in WordPress are not limited to matters related to programming codes only. Rather, you can ask it anything related to the WordPress system or any other program, and it will answer you very accurately. This is what we have seen through our extensive experiments with it.

The program asked us a large number of questions related to the theoretical and practical aspects of WordPress, and answered them all with almost no errors, while providing notes that greatly clarify and simplify the answer. For example, when we asked him (How do I change the language of the backend in WordPress?), he sent a message explaining the steps to do that. He pointed out that changing the language in this way only changes the language of the control panel, and does not translate the content of the website. Then he mentioned plugins that provide the ability to translate website content. He also pointed out that some plugins and templates may not appear in the language you chose.

The program's answer to the question of how to change the language of the backend in WordPress. It is worth noting that there is an important feature that ChatGPT has that makes it very suitable for asking about ways to perform tasks in WordPress, which is that it keeps the previous messages in the conversation in its mind, and this will make it easier for you to ask it for more clarification, or ask it to help you solve a problem you encountered while implementing the steps that it provided you with. The program's answer to our response, which showed that there was a problem facing us while executing the steps

The previous image shows the program’s answer to our response (I did not find the Arabic language in the list), as it provided us with a set of methods that we can use to solve the problem, and add the Arabic language to the WordPress backend. Capabilities of the artificial intelligence program ChatGPT The ChatGPT program has excellent and very useful capabilities that make it capable of answering the vast majority of questions that can come to the mind of any human being in any field. However, there are limits that cannot be crossed and flaws that make human experts in the field better than it. These limits include, for example, the following: It does not know any recent information, as the latest information it knows dates back to the year 2021, that is, in the last days before the end of its training, and therefore it has no idea about the changes that have occurred in the world after this date. Whether technical or other changes. He cannot perform any task that requires anything other than sending a text message, because the only thing he is capable of doing is receiving text messages, processing them based on the training and information he has received, and then sending text messages as answers that represent the result of the processing process.

The program cannot feel or think like humans. Although its intelligent responses suggest high thinking capabilities, they depend entirely on the input and information it has been provided with, and ideas cannot be generated without relying on that data. He has difficulty understanding sarcasm and idioms, so he prefers to avoid using unfamiliar terms as much as possible. However, he can sometimes understand idioms, even ones you come up with (it depends on your conversation with him and the context in which you use the term). He does not have the ability to access the Internet, cannot search for information on websites, and cannot understand pictures or videos

Or interpret or process them at all, as it is a linguistic artificial intelligence that deals with texts only. The program understands and uses the English language perfectly, but it is clear that its proficiency in Arabic (and other languages) is very low compared to English, as it often does not use it correctly, and at other times does not understand Arabic messages correctly.

There are many other limitations surrounding the ChatGPT artificial intelligence model, and it also suffers from many defects that make it always inefficient, as it sometimes provides false information, and at other times codes and methods that do not work, so it is necessary to always verify all the information you obtain from it, as well as to try any method it provides you on a demo site before implementing it on your site, and to be sure to make a backup copy of your site before implementing any method to do anything or placing a code that it sends. To you. And here, dear reader, we have finished introducing you to the artificial intelligence model ChatGPT, and the most important benefits that you can get by relying on it, as well as how to register for it and start using it, in addition to ways to benefit from it in WordPress to manage, develop and improve the website.

In conclusion, we would like to point out that this program is very smart, and very useful, but it cannot do everything, it cannot always help you, and it does not always provide correct information, so it may be more appropriate sometimes to search on the Internet for the information or task you want to carry out, or hire an expert to do it.
