ChatGPT is, for most use cases, a simple conversational wrapper around GPT3.5 which is available via API. You can make your own ChatGPT by giving the following prompt to GPT3.5: The following is a transcript between a helpful AI assistant and a human. The AI assistant can provide factual information (but only from before mid 2021, when its training data cuts off), ask clarifying questions, and engage in chit chat. Transcript: {your chat transcript} Output the next thing the AI says: This will work basically like ChatGPT for nearly all use cases, and does not have the same lobotimization caused by their safety RLHF features.

There is no GPT3.5 API. Do you mean GPT3?

  GPT 3.5 is code for the model underlying davinci-text-003 and chatgpt (although there are some rumors chat is based on davinci-2).

This is mind-blowing to me. You can't converse with it but you can give it a prompt to generate a conversation.

  LLMs, to a first approximation, literally "just" do one thing: given some text, predict the text that follows it. There is nothing magical. It turns out you can create clever prompts that use that functionality to do a huge variety of tasks, though. For instance, you can prompt it like: The following is the contents of main.py: ``` <some simple code here> ``` This code will print the following: And then GPT will do its best to predict what the code prints out. For simple programs, this will give the appearance that it is "running" the program. With copious print statements, it can actually "run" fairly complicated programs, such as Dijkstra's algorithm: https://twitter.com/GrantSlatton/status/1600950846216237057 https://twitter.com/GrantSlatton/status/1600950846216237057

What is the expected format of the transcript? Would this work? Me: I'm feeling lonely Bot: I'm sorry Me: What should I do?
- gamegoblin 4y ago
  Any reasonable format will work. One of the great things about LLMs is they are very flexible on formats. Your suggested format of "Name: chat message\n" will work fine. A good rule of thumb is that almost anything an average human can parse in a single linear pass can also be parsed by an LLM.

I've been trying to figure out how the ChatGPT UI manages to keep the conversation context when it's over the limits of what the model can ingest. I even tried asking ChatGPT :D
- gamegoblin 4y ago
  Its context window is quite large -- 8192 tokens, where a token is about ~4 characters. But it's quite possible they are using GPT itself to summarize the older parts of the conversation so they can fit more in by only keeping the important bits.

    I was thinking something like that, bearing in mind that humans can't remember every single detail about a conversation either.
