Now, ChatGPT seems to offer better answers than Google Search because it may have a better understanding of our problem (short context). Example: I want to understand "[[Heisenberg uncertainty principle]]", I search Google for it, read Wikipedia, but Wikipedia is formatted to be understood by the vast majority. On the other hand, if I ask ChatGPT (which can take longer sentences/contexts), I can ask subsequent questions allowing the AI to understand where I don't understand the topic. I could have gotten the same result by asking a physicist, of course, but it's pretty hard to find one, and also an AI doesn't care about its time, or I have to pay for the service, while a human's time is more expensive So should I sell my Google stocks?
