It helps to understand what ChatGPT is, and what it isn’t.
ChatGPT does not understand anything you say. And it only does one word (technically part of a word, but to keep it simple) at a time.
What it’s doing is it is guessing the most likely next word based on the words that have come before it. If you think of you phone’s keyboard, it probably has word suggestions for what to say next. ChatGPT is like hitting the recommended word over and over until it has an answer. It’s spouting words based on how likely the word is to come next. That is all.
It uses advanced machine learning to do that, but whether it counts as AI is for the reader to decide. But it’s certainly not planning out a thoughtful answer for you.
And that’s not even taking into account that the training data largely comes from the internet, the place where people continuously make shit up.
I moved to a non-google search engine. The problem with ChatGPT is that it sounds very plausible and truthful, but is often just making shit up.
I’ve seen someone call it “mansplaining as a service”.
ooh, i’m borrowing this, thank you
don’t scuff it!

You understand this much deeper than I do, thank you for the explanation
