GPT

« Back to Glossary Index

GPT stands for Generative Pre-trained Transformer, a type of large language model designed to generate human-like text. It is pre-trained on massive datasets and uses a transformer architecture to understand context and produce coherent responses. GPT powers tools like Copilot, helping users write, summarize, and edit content. In education, GPT-based tools can support brainstorming, drafting, and feedback. Although powerful, GPT does not understand meaning like a person and may generate errors or biased outputs.
