Were the research papers used to train Ibm's language model not public? If the papers are public and there are no restrictions, Chatgpt and Gemini can use those right? If Chatgpt and Gemini used those, what's the benefit of using Ibm's language model?

Odd that heliophysics (sun physics) was specified. It's under astrophysics.

Presumably they gave higher weight to the papers and lower weight to blogspam and reddit

I can tell Chatgpt to use scientific sources only, right? :)

Not really? It doesn't have sources, all the information is just thrown into a heap in its neural net. You can somewhat trick it by telling it that it's an expert in the field, but it's far from foolproof
