In this enlightening blog post, I dive into the tantalizing world of ChatGPT and Large Language Models. Clarifying its operation, I unlock this enigma by comparing its mechanisms to a simple language model. However, Challenges arise due to the explosion of possible token combinations, leading to an inherent 'lossy' compression of our world's vast information. Surprisingly, even with such compression, these models can mimic human language in a compelling manner. I also investigate possible strategies to optimize this amazing technology - including zero-shot learning, one-shot learning, few-shot learning, and fine-tuning. Entering the era of prompt engineering and larger models, we're...
