eli5: Why does ChatpGPT give responses word-by-word, instead of the whole answer straight away?

1.51K viewsOtherTechnology

This goes for almost all AI language models that I’ve used.

I ask it a question, and instead of giving me a paragraph instantly, it generates a response word by word, sometimes sticking on a word for a second or two. Why can’t it just paste the entire answer straight away?

When someone asks you a question think about the process of how you answer. YOu start saying words one at a time and your brain gives you each word one by one as you say them. Chatgpt is doing sort of the same thing. Each word is given and it then decides what the next word should be and so on and so on
