1. You’re right, it’s not ChatGPT exactly. ChatGPT = GPT-3.5 + finetuning on conversational data + alignment (RLHF). But I found out, that GPT-3.5 + proper prompting gives comparable results and works really good.
2. The context of the conversation is preserved by adding whole (or some parts of) dialog to the prompt.
Does it get the context of the conversation so far resent to it for example?
