What Actually Happens When You Press ‘Send’ to ChatGPT

SMRTR summary

When you press "Send" in ChatGPT, your message travels through encrypted channels to OpenAI's servers where it's authenticated and prepared with conversation context. The system converts your text into tokens, feeds them to a transformer model that predicts responses word-by-word, then streams the generated tokens back in real-time, creating the familiar typing effect while applying safety checks throughout.
