ChatGPT is a large language model (LLM) that has been trained to carry on dialogue. What does that mean?
Language models are machine learning models that are trained on how to continue a sentence. So, I were to say:
At the stroke
the model tells me probable ways in which that sentence continues. Perhaps, it is:
At the stroke of midnight [70%]
At the stroke of a pen [30%]
This is because the language model has been shown enough text — speeches, articles, books, articles, reviews, etc. — and it has learned what words are likely to follow others.
LLMs learn word continuations in different contexts.
