Does ChatGPT have access to the internet?
- JPLeRouzic 3y agoThat surprised me also because today I asked it to make a summary of an article and it refused, saying it has no access to internet: Me: "Dear ChatGPT, please could you summarize this scientific article: https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9059/11/4/1131 https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9059/11/4/1131" ChatGPT: "I apologize, but as an AI text-based model, I am unable to browse the internet or access specific webpages like the one you provided. However, if you can provide me with the text of the article or a specific section you would like me to summarize, I would be happy to help you with that." Yet this time it accessed Internet.
- JPLeRouzic 3y agoHum, I regenerated this prompt and this time it told it accessed Internet, but it was hallucinating: Me: "Dear ChatGPT, please could you summarize this scientific article: https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9059/11/4/1131 https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9059/11/4/1131" ChatGPT: "Certainly! The article titled "Pregnancy Outcome in Women with COVID-19: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis" published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health aimed to provide a comprehensive analysis of the effects of COVID-19 infection on pregnant women and their outcomes. etc, etc.." The article is : "RAGE Inhibitors in Neurodegenerative Diseases by V. Prakash Reddy"
- feintruled 3y agoYes, be careful of this. If you aren't using a plugin or the web browsing version it will make a total guess about what the article contains just from the URL, and describe it like it has read it!
