Oh, okay, this is a really neat analogy to start with, like a movie script where the AI's part is missing. Using a magical machine to predict the next word sounds like a good way to hook people into the concept.
So it's basically super-powered predictive text, then? The idea of repeating the prediction to complete dialogue makes total sense for how a chatbot would work. It's kind of wild to think about all the possible word continuations.
That probability assignment makes it a lot more nuanced than just picking one word. The way they described building a chatbot by feeding it prompts and having it generate responses, it really clarifies the user experience side of things.

A large language model's core function is to predict the next word in a sequence, operating like a sophisticated predictive text engine [0:23]. This involves assigning probabilities to all possible next words, and when used in chatbots, the model repeatedly generates text based on a given prompt, effectively completing a conversation [0:47]. Despite this deterministic process, varied outputs can arise from the same prompt due to the probabilistic nature of predictions [1:11]. The model's ability to generate sensible text stems from its training on vast amounts of internet data, a process that would take a human millennia to complete [1:11].
