It is every bit as much of a search engine as SearchGPT, with the exception of more recent information, as I’ve already explained.
it generates predictions on what is the most likely text completion to your prompt.
…using information from the internet. I’m honestly baffled this needs to be explained. Once again, I ask: Where do you think the information it generates comes from? It’s not just word salad, the words contain information. Were you unaware of the many many OpenAI lawsuits based on this fact?
This is why it bullshits.
It bullshits because it’s trained on bullshit, and doesn’t actually know anything, and isn’t programmed to say “I don’t know”.
