II. How it works
ChatGPT is a language model created with the purpose of holding a conversation with the end user. According to ChatGPT’s definition, its AI is trained on an Internet text dataset and can generate human-like text to answer questions.
Besides, ChatGPT is also trained using RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback) so that the AI knows what people expect when they ask questions. Therefore, the advantage of this type of chatbot is that it gives quick answers, straight to the point and very similar to real people answering. The quality and accuracy of the answers generated by the system is highly dependent on the AI training from the input data.
