20 hours agoWhen you send a message to a chatbot, it cuts it up to little pieces made up of a few letters, assigns numbers to them, does math, and gives you back a bunch of other numbers that it translates back to pieces and puts together into a sentence.
You pay for the chatbot by the amount of little pieces in and little pieces out. The little pieces are the tokens.
The stance is that chatbota aren’t essential to the economy the way smartphones or computers are.
