Don't trust 'em.

Over the last few months, Al chatbots have exploded in popularity off the surging success of OpenAl's O revolutionary ChatGPT-which, amazingly, only burst onto the scene around December (fave.co/3wnujwM). But when Microsoft seized the opportunity to hitch its wagon to OpenAl's rising star for a steep $10 billion dollars (fave.co/3L4Czn3), it chose to do so by introducing a GPT-4-powered chatbot under the guise of Bing, its swell-but-also-ran search engine, in a bid to upend Google's search dominance.

But under the hood, they’re actually large-language models, or LLMs (fave.co/3mMseCG), trained on billions or even trillions of points of data—text—that they learn from in order to anticipate which words
