ChatGPT is going to replace Google Search. This is one of the hottest topics for debate among tech and AI enthusiasts. But how much credibility does this statement hold? We all know GPT is better for answering queries and follow-ups. We often use GPT for our assignments, day-to-day queries, and even for drafting work emails. But what about surfing the internet?
We often use the term “Google it” because we rely solely on Google when browsing the Internet. But why is that? To answer the question of which is better, I switched to ChatGPT search as my default search engine. In this article, I’ll share my thoughts and explain how you too can set ChatGPT as your default search engine.
Is ChatGPT Search – Better than Google?
With the release of ChatGPT search, there is an uproar in the AI community that GPT search can be better than Google. However, in my testing, I discovered that even though ChatGPT is great for personal queries and one-on-one questions, it is still not there. To specify, I asked about an upcoming smartphone and its specs, to which I got the perfect answer.
When I asked a more generic question, such as “best restaurants near my location,” it only showed me a list of restaurants nearby. There were no reviews, directions, infographics, or visual aids. I do give props to OpenAI for improving on the quality of answers but this is still a work in progress and needs more refining and data to give out a credible explanation.
