This is not hugely different to ChatGPT though? If you search for "how do COVID vaccines and 5G networks let Bill Gates control your mind", you'll get junk results in both Google and ChatGPT.

The difference is that Google gives you a selection of results, while ChatGPT only gives one so it seems more authoritative -- but still not too different from Google's AI-powered info boxes, which also famously get things wrong sometimes.

Oh I don't know. ChatGPT gives unambiguous refutations of all the common lunatic theories I could think of, but Google presents all sides. When I asked Google for the significance of gold fringe on the American flag (answer: no significance) Google gave me 6 results for generic flag information followed by several wackadoodle tales about states of emergency and admiralty law. Only a severely stupid person believes there is a secret set of parallel laws in force when a flag is decorated with fringe, but Google is saying: you figure it out.

The actual answer that ChatGPT gives you:

> There is no evidence to suggest that COVID-19 vaccines or 5G networks can control anyone's mind. These are baseless and unfounded conspiracy theories that have been debunked by experts and public health officials.

COVID-19 vaccines have been developed and are being distributed around the world in an effort to protect people from the coronavirus and help stop the spread of the disease. These vaccines have undergone rigorous testing and review by regulatory agencies to ensure their safety and effectiveness. They have been shown to be safe and effective in preventing COVID-19 and saving lives.

5G networks are a new generation of wireless technology that provide faster and more reliable internet connectivity. They are being deployed around the world to improve communication and connectivity for people and businesses. There is no scientific evidence linking 5G technology to any negative health effects or to the ability to control people's minds.

It is important to rely on credible sources of information when seeking to understand complex issues like these. It is not helpful to promote or spread misinformation that can create unnecessary fear or confusion.

Maybe the OP thinks *that* answer is rubbish :)
