So, what, did ChatGPT just rip this off wikipedia?

I have no doubt that the majority of LLM models have trained on Wikipedia articles

Yes. If you check the other top Google results you'll frequently find the articles they plagiarized.

I do have a custom instruction to use Wikipedia as a source where possible.

The difference is i dont need to know what i am looking for i can just ask some a basic question.

Llms are limited and for that reason vey hated on lemmy but they can be very useful when configured right.

Bro...

Just link the Wikipedia.

That requires knowing the names of the pages i need which is practically never the case.

If i have plenty of time to do a deepdive sure but here i wanted a quick fact of the day kinda thing.
