Interestingly, I asked about my field of research it just outputed a combination of the two open-access review papers for the field.

It was nothing special, nor not completely correct, but it is the first time I've been able to pinpoint ChatGPTs source.

GPT4 seems to do a better job with not making up references than GPT3.5. Don't check the DOIs though
Are those references just relevant sources, or actual citations?

For my example I knew of the sources already. ChatGPT didn't make the connection

Sometimes either just relevant or actual citations, I've seen both. If you ask for specific citations for a specific phrase it's basically a coin flip what you get, what you get could be fake citations
