AI is being toted as the tool to end all tools, but can it actually create files on your computer? A PDF document is file format which can be used to transport images or text independent of the software they were created on. ChatGPT, on the other hand, is a web browser chatbot which runs off artificial intelligence to generate text for various purposes. It does this by responding text prompts inputted by the user, using an AI language model. It has become massively popular for content creation, be that for marketing copy or social media posts. But can ChatGPT make PDFs?
Can ChatGPT create images?
So, ChatGPT is used principally to generate text. It formulates human-like responses which range from long-form content such as blog posts to jokes and riddles, depending on what you ask it.
However, if you are desperate to create an image, you could try linking ChatGPT up to Stable Diffusion.
Can you use ChatGPT to make a PDF?
Although there’s no way of asking ChatGPT to create a PDF for you, you can technically use it in some sense to form a PDF. For instance, you can use the Chrome extension Chat-GPT PDF or other similar add-ons. They work via PDF conversion, enabling you to save chat history on your OpenAI account as a readable PDF. You can then save or share this via email, Google Drive or other platforms to share the content of the PDF with others.

So, can ChatGPT create PDFs?
Well, it’s pretty clear that you cannot use ChatGPT to make a PDF via the usual prompt-to-response method. But by using Chrome extensions you can download your chat history as a PDF. But this probably isn’t what you’re looking for.
Furthermore, you can use GPT-3 software like Dall-E to create images which you can then convert to a PDF as necessary.
