It will use oversimplicistic terminology for complex topic, but sometimes it can be just what you need. For example, you can ask it to "explain this article like I'm five".
So, not only you saved time, instantly getting a summary that you should have spent minutes writing but, provided that you didn't exceed GPT's Memory limit (which should be around 3000 words, if I recall correctly), you also gifted the AI a vital piece of information that, mixed with its already huge training data, greatly increase the chance that the explainations you ask Chat-GPT are, indeed, useful and correct.Īlso, you can be very creative with your newfound studying partner. It seems to spit out useful summaries almost 100% of the time. Copy the chapter you're studying (if you don't have an ebook version, get an OCR reader) and ask the bot to summarize it. The solution of this problem is FEEDING GPT your actual textbook (or whatever your study material is). But if it does have any idea of what you're talking about, it will glue together pieces of information from its training data, confidently giving you an explaination that it's not necessarily factually true. So, if you ask for Chat-GPT for explaination on a subject which it doesn't know anything about, it will return the "I'm a language model who can't search the Internet" message.
But the core of Chat-GPT still it that autocomplete. In fact, both Codex and DALL-E are built on GPT-3 architecture then IstructGPT completely changed the interaction between the user and GPT-3, laying the foundations for Chat-GPT. When GPT-3 came out in 2021, it proved so versatile someone started calling a proto-AGI.
With a brutal simplification, we can say that the original GPT models worked as a really, really advanced autocomplete, trained on a large corpus of data. Many of the members of this subreddit already know how Chat-GPT works but, since its popularity seems to be skyrocketing, I think a reminder for the new AI-enthusiasts is due. I don't think it's reliable, at least for now. Still, I wouldn't plainly ask it to explain the topic I'm studying. So, I saw a few posts on this sub about how Chat-GPT is a revolutionary tool for education, and I totally agree. I think these tips are equally useful for STEM students, too, but I may be wrong. Disclaimer: English is not my native language, so you may notice some flaws in this post.ĭisclaimer 2: I was studying for my "Musical Culture of Ancient World" exam when Chat-GPT came out.
