ChatGPT is amazing! No doubt about it. I use it frequently!
The problem. It's down all the time.
People seem to love it so much that their servers don't hold up. Good for them, bad for us.
If we can't access ChatGPT, is there anything similar?
Yes! There actually is. It's called Jasper Chat.
Jasper Chat is best alternative to ChatGPT and based on the exact same GPT-3.5 technology that ChatGPT uses. The main difference is that Jasper is more trained for business use, to create marketing copy and content that sells but it can also keep up the conversation and even code. I use it all the time to create blog posts and copywriting.
Here's a quick 30-second explanation video for Jasper Chat:

In my opinion, the results are amazing. I can make them longer by asking it to write again, but make it longer this time:

So you get the idea. It's really similar to ChatGPT and I haven't found any other alternatives that comes this close to ChatGPT.
Can it Code? ChatGPT Can.
I'm not the industry expert in coding, but have played quite a lot with PHP, CSS, JS, HTML and even Ruby. Here's a quick example how Jasper Chat created me an lbs to kg converter:

Who?
Who am I to talk about ChatGPT and Jasper Chat?
Say hi 👋 I'm on Twitter.
Before there was ChatGPT, I was already using Jasper to create blog posts and copywriting.
Jasper helped (and still helps) me to create content at the scale I could have never thought possible.
They didn't have Jasper Chat back then, but they we're already using the same GPT-technology that ChatGPT now uses.
When ChatGPT was released, Jasper quickly released their own version of it and it was amazing straight out of the box.
Whenever ChatGPT is down or I exhaust it and get "1 hour ban", I always turn to Jasper Chat. And it doesn't disappoint.
Give it a go, they offer a free trial. You never know if it's even better for your use case than ChatGPT.
