GPT Explained for a 5-Year-Old

What is GPT? (For Little Kids)

You know how you ask your parents, teachers, or friends questions like:

• “Why do cats purr?”

• “What’s 2 + 2?”

• “Tell me a bedtime story.”

They listen to you, think for a moment, and then answer.

GPT works the same way.

When you talk to GPT, it listens, understands them, and gives an answer just like a person talking to you.

How does it know so much?
Because it has read and learned from a lot of books, stories, and information from the internet more than any person could read.

So when you ask it something, it uses all that knowledge to give you the best answer it can.

But here’s something important:

• GPT doesn’t feel happy, sad, or hungry.

• It doesn’t remember your life like your friends do.

• It just knows how to talk and answer based on what it has learned.

That’s all, GPT is like a talking book that can answer almost anything you ask.
