Why GPT changes links?

If I want to rewrite sources and use gpt for that, but then it's different links, how to stop it from doing it
 
Before pasting your text, say:


Rewrite the content but DO NOT change, remove, replace, edit, shorten, or add any links. Keep all URLs exactly as they appear.
 
Although you can provide clear instructions in your prompt so that the AI does not alter the links in the source text, you should understand that this does not guarantee anything. All modern language AI models use the Transformers algorithm, meaning the result will always be random. To minimize hallucinations, set a low temperature; for example, set it to 0.1.
 
Create an additional command that doesn't modify existing links in the source code. Remember to save the old version each time a change occurs. Sometimes ChatGPT can corrupt your source code.
 
Tell GPT clearly to keep all links exactly the same, or just add the links manually after rewriting to avoid any changes.
So only adding manually can work? Or mayne I can ask to add the links after? Ot gpt still can change them...
 
Add to your prompt “Rewrite the text but keep all URLs exactly the same.” You can also paste links separately and ask GPT not to edit anything inside them.
 
I didn't understand this part, can you explain?

In addition to the prompt, all modern language AI models receive a set of special parameters (max_tokens, temperature, top_p, etc.) that determine how they will work. Here is a guide to the parameters of language AI models. Note the temperature parameter there. Lower values will cause the model to strictly follow prompts such as "Rewrite the text, but keep all URLs exactly the same."

You should tell it to KEEP the links and to still rewrite the sources.
 
GPT changes links because it predicts patterns, not verifies URLs. If you don’t explicitly tell it to keep links unchanged, it may “improve” or reformat them. I usually paste the exact links and clearly instruct it to preserve them word for word, or I add them back manually after rewriting.
 
You can ask GPT explicitly not to include or change any links. After generating content, manually check and replace any unwanted links. Alternatively, provide your own links and ask GPT to focus on those.
 
Tell GPT explicitly “do not change or replace any URLs,” and paste the links separately so it keeps them untouched.
