ChatGPT is a member of a family of language models. It may be somewhat trivializing but let us start a sentence with some blank,
for example,
John is <blank> to Japan.
What follows 'is' not hard to guess. These are two possibilities that come to mind. 'going' or 'coming' to insert in the <blank> space. My knowledge of the grammar suggested these based on the language I know. I learned from studying the language and have seen it used many times.
More generally, a language model uses machine learning to conduct a probability distribution over words used to predict the most likely next word based on a previous entry. Language models learn from the text that can be used for producing original text, predicting the next word in the text, speech recognition, optical speech recognition, and handwriting recognition. ChatGPT is one such language model.
The following describes how we may get it installed on a local computer:
In order to work with chatGPT you need to get a copy of the program to your local computer. Of course, there are other ways to work without a local copy.
You use the GIT program to get a copy from the remote location to your local computer. The Git tool(program) is used to access the GitHub service. Git is a version control tool that you can run from the command line on your desktop/laptop.
In the present case, GitHub has the files/directory for working with chatGPT. Using GIT you can bring a copy from the cloud(Internet) hosted service to create a local directory on your computer. Make sure you read the README.md file.
The following block shows all the command line arguments for the GIT command. I may write GIT or Git and they mean the same. It is a rich command and you can do a lot of stuff with it.
