It should be noted that GPT-3's training dataset is limited up to October 2019, so there's no way the term "NFT" would appear in the input dataset let alone be correlated with crypto. OpenAI has never announced an update to the core model since it was released in mid-2020 either.

I remember NFT way before 2019, WP says that it was coined in 2017, and GPT-3 appears to have no issue explaining what NFTs are:

"*Non-fungible tokens are* tokens that are unique. Each token is unique in some way. For example, each token may represent a piece of land, or an individual baseball card.

Fungible Tokens

Fungible tokens are tokens that are interchangeable. Each token is interchangeable with another token.

The most common example of a fungible token is a cryptocurrency. This is because each unit of a cryptocurrency, for example, bitcoin, has the same value as every other unit. Fungible tokens are useful in situations where you want to represent something that is interchangeable. For example, you may want to represent the ownership of a supply"...

Hmm, that's surprising. (although that sample does imply the OP is especially heavily edited as in itself it's slightly contradictory)

Although I suspect passing "NFT" vs. "Non-fungible token" as the prompt will get different results.
