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?

Imagine ChatGPT is like a chef making your favorite meal. Instead of serving the whole dish at once, it carefully adds one ingredient at a time to make sure everything tastes just right.

Similarly, ChatGPT puts together words bit by bit to make sure they’re easy to understand and on point. This method helps avoid confusion and ensures the answer fits the question perfectly, like putting together a puzzle piece by piece.
