Ask ChatGPT to summarize Sarah Silverman’s book. Ask it to give you a few quotes from it.

How else would it be able to do that unless it had been trained using the book as an input.

    Hmm. That's a fair point. Lol.

    I suppose it's possible that it was trained on articles and such that quote/summarize the book. But what you're saying makes sense.
