The model is based on the GPT-3.5 (Generative Pretrained Transformer 3.5) architecture and is currently one of the largest and most advanced language models on the market. ChatGPT's powerful capabilities make it a significant milestone in the field of artificial intelligence.

How Users in China Can Register for a GPT Account

Before starting the registration process, please ensure that your network can access the official OpenAI website. OpenAI only supports IP addresses from countries such as the United States, Canada, Japan, Singapore, etc., for registration. It does not support IP addresses from mainland China, Hong Kong, or Macau.

Step 1: Open the OpenAI Website and Find the ChatGPT Registration Login Portal

First, open the OpenAI ChatGPT page. In the upper right corner of the OpenAI official website, you will see a ChatGPT "Log In" button. Click this button to enter the login page for registering an OpenAI ChatGPT account. This step is the first step into the world of ChatGPT, please ensure you are using an IP from a supported region.

Step 2: Choose Gmail Login Method to Register ChatGPT Account

On the OpenAI registration account login page, you have two options: use a Google email or a Microsoft email for one-click login to ChatGPT. Since OpenAI does not support email providers like NetEase or QQ, it is recommended to use a Google email to register for ChatGPT. ChatGPT accounts registered with Gmail are usually more stable and reliable, less likely to be considered as machine-registered OpenAI accounts, and the OpenAI accounts are also less likely to be banned. Using a Gmail account can improve your account security and reliability.

Step 3: Verify ChatGPT Account Registration Code with Gmail

After being redirected to the Google Gmail login page, enter your Google account and password. Once logged into Gmail, please open your Gmail inbox to receive the OpenAI account verification email with the ChatGPT registration verification code, and click the OpenAI registration verification link button. This step is to ensure that your email is valid and that you are the true owner of this email.

Step 4: Fill in Personal Information for OpenAI to Register ChatGPT Account

After completing Gmail verification, OpenAI will require you to fill in your name and birthday to register a ChatGPT account, preventing bot registrations of OpenAI accounts. This information can be made up, it doesn't have to be real, but it shouldn't be too far-fetched. You should create relatively realistic information to register a ChatGPT account. For example, you'd better not fill in a birth year of 2023 to register a ChatGPT account, as OpenAI officials would obviously find this ChatGPT account suspicious. Remember, although you can make up information, keep it reasonable to avoid raising suspicions from OpenAI.

Step 5: Bind Overseas Phone Number for ChatGPT Account Registration Verification

This is the most crucial step in OpenAI account registration. The ChatGPT account needs to be bound to an overseas phone number to receive a verification code. Since OpenAI does not support phone numbers from mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, or Google Voice, you may need to use a code receiving platform like sms-activate.org. Most people might get stuck at this step of binding an overseas phone number to ChatGPT. Registering on a code receiving platform requires a $10 deposit to bind a phone number to the ChatGPT account. Although it may seem not very cost-effective, this is currently one of the most reliable methods.

Step 6: Complete OpenAI Account Phone Number Verification Through Code Receiving Platform

1. Register an account on sms-activate.org and complete email verification.
2. Deposit $10 to purchase an overseas phone number to receive the ChatGPT phone verification code.
3. Fill in the overseas phone number on the OpenAI website and click to send the verification code.
4. Receive the verification code on the sms-activate.org website and enter it into the input box for the ChatGPT account phone verification code on the OpenAI website.

This process may require some time and patience, but it is a key step to ensure you can successfully register a ChatGPT account.

Step 7: Complete ChatGPT Account Registration and Start Using OpenAI's ChatGPT 3.5

If the overseas phone number you purchased is of good quality and hasn't been used for OpenAI registration before, then the ChatGPT phone number verification should be successful easily, and your OpenAI account registration will be complete. You will receive a $5 OpenAI API KEY credit and can start using ChatGPT. Generally, the free ChatGPT API KEY $5 credit has a three-month usage period.

Due to the frequent use of code receiving platforms to register ChatGPT accounts, it often happens that the purchased overseas phone numbers cannot receive the verification code for registering a ChatGPT account with OpenAI. We often use virtual phone numbers to receive ChatGPT account verification codes, and our experience shows that UK virtual phone numbers have a higher success rate in receiving ChatGPT verification codes.

After successful login, you will enter the main interface of ChatGPT. At the bottom center of the screen, you will see an input dialog box. You can enter content you're interested in and press enter, and ChatGPT will respond to you. This is the beginning of your interaction with ChatGPT. You can try various different questions and conversation topics to fully experience the powerful functions of ChatGPT.

By following these detailed steps, you should be able to successfully complete the registration and use of ChatGPT. Remember to comply with relevant terms of use and ethical guidelines when using ChatGPT to ensure that you can use this powerful AI tool safely in the long term. If you encounter any problems during use, don't hesitate to seek help or refer to OpenAI's official documentation.
