Me: is chatgpt really just a glorified markov chain chatGPT: ChatGPT is a type of language model that is based on the transformer architecture, which is a neural network-based approach to natural language processing. While the Markov Chain is a mathematical model that can be used to generate text, it is a relatively simple model compared to neural network-based models like ChatGPT. ChatGPT is trained on a massive amount of text data and uses a deep neural network with multiple layers to learn patterns in the data.
