Breakthrough suggests technology behind ChatGPT and Bard can generate information that goes beyond human knowledge

The finding emerged from Google DeepMind, where scientists are investigating whether large language models, which underpin modern chatbots such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Bard, can do more than repackage information learned in training and come up with new insights.
