Discovering How ChatGPT Works

Summary

This chapter helps the readers to learn that ChatGPT is to chatbots what ice cubes are to Antarctica. It provides the readers with the majority of information they need to understand and use ChatGPT. ChatGPT works differently than a search engine. A search engine such as Google or Bing or an artificial intelligence (AI) assistant such as Siri, Alexa, or Google Assistant works by searching the internet for matches to the keywords enter in the search bar. A supercomputer hosted in Azure was built by these partners for the exclusive use by OpenAI to train its various AI models. Specific architectural parameters for any given AI model are chosen according to optimal computational efficiency and load balancing across GPUs. ChatGPT uses a multilayer transformer network to generate responses to user prompts. ChatGPT uses transformers suited for language processing. Microsoft and OpenAI worked as partners in training AI models.
