#Getting ChatGPT to Reference it's Own Training Data?

I gave chatGPT a silly prompt: "Write about Mickey Mouse's importance in French Wine Making". It replies with an interesting fact, that Disney licensed MM's image to a champagne company in 1930 to put on bottles. Interesting fact, but I googled this and found nothing about it.

Granted, I didn’t look too hard. But the thing I was really curious about is whether ChatGPT is giving me a valid fact or if it’s some fake AI-Generated statement. I asked how it knows about Disney’s licensing deal. It tells me it’s from the data it trained on, but it can’t tell me where exactly it comes from.

I’m wondering if there’s any existing work into how ChatGPT might be able to reference its own sources so a user could, if interested, drill deeper into its base of knowledge.

ive repeatedly tried to get chatGPT to reference its training data, if you find an answer i would love to know

#

asking for url references gives interesting results, but its not training data

You might be able to get PhatGPT to do something similar a while back by having it simulate chatGPT with training data available and then just reading the dats
