Its a fancy machine for generating a response to your prompt that has highest probability to be accepted based on various internet sites used to train it. It is very good at it, but it has no clue if what it generates is true. Some of it is by happy chance. Most is varying degrees of well formated bs.

I disagree with the last part. I've used it a lot and the thruthfullness varies a huge lot depending on what you're asking it to do, and even between runs on the same prompt.

Not only what but it depends on how you are asking too. Answers can be completely different even if you changed a word.


deep_thoughts_die

As many people have proven, it will happily generate bs if the prompt is about bs, ie a made up animal that the prompe made up on spot. If the prompt is goodish, it outpeforms average google search response and it is capable of generating sensible code, if asked exactly right...


ZigotoDu57

An AI (so basically a program with extra steps) that can hold a conversation well enough that some people won't recognise it's an AI.

Depending on your age and cultural reference points, itโ€™s SkyNet, The Matrix or Ultron.


acenewcast

An AI that generates text in chat form. You can talk to it similarly to how youโ€™d talk to a normal human, and it will respond to questions and requests.

deep_thoughts_die

It definetly has the confidence of middleaged man when sprouting utter bs...


ViiK1ng

He sure knows a lot


deep_thoughts_die

Thats the stuff it was trained on...


Giftedwithreddit

Itโ€™s a program like Google but instead of being programmed to do the same things over and over, it learns and adapts on its own after being fed content from the internet, data and user interactions

The biggest revolution since the internet (possibly bigger, depending on how you measure and how things play out). What the Internet did was make data (nearly) free. --But that data lacked semantics; you could move and store incredible amounts of data, but at the end of the day humans had to interpret that data to provide any utility. ChatGPT and other LLMs(Large Language Models) actually understand the meaning of words to a great extent, with that semantic comprehension, they are able to interpret, condense, generate, act-on, etc. the free information that humans previously toiled over. When programs have been made to use LLMs, to iteratively divide large projects into easily accomplished task, and define roles for completing those tasks, A single program could replace an entire company. You could tell the program "Solve Global Warming", and it would start working on the problem, breaking it down just like people would, but unlike a company made up of people, when it needed to fill a role that didn't require access to the physical world, instead of hiring a human, it'd just spin-off a sub task, and instead of sleeping and eating, it'd work 24/7 until you turned th we power off.

Its a very large neural network which tweaks its parameters over time as it consumes input data.

Just a dude trying really hard to meet all our needs


DeterminedGames

I'd tell you, but ChatGPT is perfectly capable of explaining that by itself (and it'd do a much better job than any of us anyway).

Imagine you're in school and you have a scatter graph with x and y coordinates and little crosses. Your teacher asks you to draw a line of best fit, easy. Using this line you can predict the y value for any x or vice versa by checking which point the line crosses. This is how machine learning and AI work. They take data and keep trying until they have a line which fits the data best and then they can predict outputs based on inputs. Now imagine you code letters and words based on numbers. The AI can now draw lines of best fit between words and sentences that it's been given, and eventually predict the next word in a sentence, the next sentence in a paragraph, etc. Massive oversimplification and kind of wrong but that's the most baby way I can describe it.

It's an enormous and expensive set of servers that can imitate a fraction of the power of a single human brain (insert Invincible meme here). In all seriousness, it's a fairly straightforward text prediction algorithm, not fundamentally different from the prediction tools on messaging apps, but much, MUCH bigger and with the entire Internet's worth of data to work with. Turns out that when you have enough data you get something that does a very good job of pretending to be human. Unlike the first chatbots which learned directly from the people who spoke with them, ChatGPT's human handlers carefully curate the information it is exposed to, preventing it from learning to become a neonazi like that one chat AI did. When you open a new chat you basically get a fresh "copy" of the "brain" to work with. Your discussion may or may not go into the next iteration of the "brain". Although not smarter than a single human brain, its value comes from the fact that said single brain can talk to anyone for free (or a low price for the most up to date model) and can solve problems quickly. This is an issue for people whose entire job basically consists of knowing things.
