Behind the Chatbot

Say hello to Chad Baht โ€” a friendly chatbot who explains, in his own words, how he actually works. Instead of reading about tokenization, training data, or hallucination secondhand, students get to ask Chad Baht directly and watch him walk through his own inner workings step by step. He's the centerpiece of an AI literacy activity built for community college students with no technical background.
