Woah, article is way to TL:DR too! Let me show how it is done: A generative model is just a computer program. The program is incredibly book smart. No matter how incoherent your ramblings it will find the most likely connection between words, string them into (mostly wrong) candidate sentences with different degrees of certainty, it looks in its database where everything you said is compared to the wrong word combinations assigning scores to each and then it adds up all the points scored and it finds THE most likely correct response: "All gore invented the internet" There, that is all there is to it.
