Okay, I'll take your word for it.
I've never ever, in many hours of playing with ChatGPT as a toy, had it make up a word. Hallucinate wildly, yes, but not stogulate a word out of nothing.
I'd love to know more, though. How does it combine new words? Do you have any examples of words ChatGPT has made up? This is fascinating to me, as it means the model is much less chained to the training data than I thought.
A lot of compound words are actually multiple tokens so there's nothing stopping the LLM from generating the tokens in a new order thereby creating a new word.
