Five Surprising Facts About How AI Chatbots Work

AI chatbots, like ChatGPT, are like students.

They learn from both the massive amount of text data (pre-training) and the feedback given by human teachers.

They break down words into small pieces called tokens.

They don't know everything, because their knowledge is limited to a specific date and might need to search the internet for new stuff.

Sometimes, they make mistakes and give incorrect information.

Also, they use a calculator in the background to help with math problems.
