Abstract: ChatGPT is a dialogue system developed by OpenAI company. It appears as a Chatbot, but in essence, it uses Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC) technology to produce answers. Its key foundation is Generative Pre-trained Transformer and the core technology is InstructGPT. When compared to similar products in the early stages, its main characteristic is that there is a significant decrease in making up facts and generating toxic content. We present a systematic investigation of the technical structure, relevant research and practice, and applications scenarios of ChatGPT. Based on the investigation, we analyze the inspiration from the rapid development of AI technology as well as the influence of ChatGPT on Scientific Research and Library & Information Service. According to these influence, we present eight suggestions for the Library & Information Service field. Overall, the field should find its distinctive value orientation in the AI era, not only by maintaining the conventional scientific research paradigm, but also by exploring new technologies to boost scientific research.
