This is a different model, called GPT-3, released in 2020. ChatGPT has the same number of neurons, but is trained with both human feedback and web data, rather than just web data like GPT-3.

What you're saying still holds up, though -- ChatGPT still hallucinates information.

Isn't ChatGPT just a conversational interface for GPT-3?

Yes, the human feedback model is called InstructGPT and has been the official “GPT-3” for some time now. ChatGPT is only somewhat more trained, but unlike the playground, it’s free and has a Markdown renderer.

No, it has different training, so entirely different neuron connection weights. They are very similar though.
