Basically, you have specialised systems with specialised software, and then you throw _mountains of data_ at them. They can basically use that to “learn” data patterns and thus be able to recreate and predict them based on new data.

For example, if you let the machine study literally millions of conversations, it’ll get pretty good at predicting what works get used in response to any kind of prompt. And that’s how you get a chat program that seems very realistic.
