Tokens are the essential units that Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT use to understand and generate text. Tokens determine how the model processes text and how much you’re charged for its use.
What are Tokens?
Tokens are pieces of text. They can be as small as a single letter or as large as a whole word. For example, the word “unbelievable” might be split into multiple tokens: [“un”, “believ”, “able”].
A phrase like “New York” could be a single token: [“New York”].
Input Tokens
Input Tokens are the tokens you provide to the model. If you type in the chat, “How’s the weather in New York?” it might break down into 6 tokens: [“How”, “‘s”, “the”, “weather”, “in”, “New York”, “?”].
The model uses these tokens to understand your question.
Output Tokens
Output Tokens are the tokens the model generates in response. If it replies, “It’s sunny in San Francisco,” it could be tokenized as: [“It”, “‘s”, “sunny”, “in”, “San Francisco”].
These tokens form the model’s response to your input.
