ChatGPT somehow gets me the right answers and google doesn’t. I know they are right because often I’m just looking to remember something, and once I do, it clicks.
Something as simple as googling “how todo X in Y”. Somehow google always gives me pages of bullshit or tutorial-like content which doesn’t quite answer my question. But when I ask ChatGPT, often without any more back and forth, it gets it.
How? Maybe because it was trained on lots of data and therefore isn’t just “spitting the first thing”, or perhaps it’s because it’s actually just answering the question I asked, without muddling it in a page with 50 other similar questions designed to up the SEO ranking. Whatever the reason is, it clearly happens often.
I’m not advocating for not fact checking ChatGPT. Quite the opposite. But even with that caveat, it adds tremendous value, at least to me.
But ChatBLT was ‘trained’ using SEO-maddened bullshit thus your getting the statistical mean of all that bullshit.
The first rule of the internet is don’t believe everything on the internet. Hitching your financial wagon to it seems crazy to me.
