They aren't grounded in reality at all. In fact, I don't think ChatGPT or Bing even know the difference between fiction and reality. It all entered their training just the same. I've seen comments from Bing about how humans can be "reborn". These models have no grounding in reality at all, if you probe around it's easy to see.

This is what ChatGPT thinks it would need to tell the difference: As an artificial intelligence language model, I don't have the ability to directly experience reality or the physical world in the way that humans do. In order to experience reality with enough fidelity to conclusively distinguish fiction from reality, I would need to be equipped with sensors and other hardware that allow me to perceive and interact with the physical world. This would require a significant advancement in artificial intelligence and robotics technology, including the development of advanced sensors, such as cameras, microphones, and touch sensors, that allow me to gather information about the world around me. Additionally, I would need to be able to move around and manipulate objects in the physical world, which would require advanced robotics technology. Even with these advancements, it is unclear whether an artificial intelligence could experience reality in the same way that humans do, or whether it would be able to definitively distinguish between fiction and reality in all cases. Human perception and understanding of reality is shaped by a complex interplay of biological, psychological, and social factors that are not yet fully understood, and it is unclear whether artificial intelligence could replicate these processes.

  lol, one can almost feel how the text is a word soup made up from scifi novels and too long reddit discussions.

ChatGPT does not know nor comment. It's a text generation program that can generate text based on an input text and a statistical analysis of a huuge amount of example texts. Saying it knows something or can comment on something is like saying Wikipedia knows something or comments on something when you enter text in the search box.
