ChatGPT

The basic concept of ChatGPT is at some level rather simple. Start from a huge sample of human-created text from the web, books, etc. Then train a neural net to generate text that’s “like this”. And in particular, make it able to start from a “prompt” and then continue with text that’s “like what it’s been trained with”.

ChatGPT is not scraping the web and returning a response. Its AI is “thinking” and creating content it believes answers your question. Whether this is the job of a search engine is another matter, but it is undeniably useful for circumstances in which original content like a code snippet, blog post, email draft, or social media post is valuable.&nb
