    I already have for most things I used to use Google search for. Now days there’s about a 10% chance I’ll get the actual results I’m looking for with Google. Most time I start with Google because of my former habits, give up and chatgpt gives me the exact answer I was looking for.

      Do you get references from ChatGPT or have any way to verify the information it gives? Admittedly at this point, Google results are often full of AI-written articles too, but at least there are hints that a site might be a content-mill.

        The key for me is the gpt can give you a pointed response to your broad question and then you can further research the now broken down problem.

        For example, i may ask gpt: is there a tool that can translate knex style sql queries into what the queries that actually gets executed?

        And then got responds with info about how to do that and I can then Google the specific things it responds with.

        To be honest, I’m not too sure. I’m not really asking questions that requires me to verify the source. Next time I have a question, I’ll check if it can link the sources that were used based on the information given. I’ve mainly been using it recently to update the verbiage for my wife’s resume or how many days it’s been from a specific date so I can track the progress of my plants.
