How do you verify that chatgpt answers are correct? (And to be honest, how do you gauge the correctness of random internet sites)?

To speak to GP's point, a number of times already I've failed to find something immediately on Google, asked chatgpt, gotten an answer and then used Google to verify chatgpt's answer.

Google is great if you already know exactly what you're looking for, for a lot of topics chatgpt is already better than Google if you don't

Google is currently unpolluted by GPT results.

What happens when Google gets swamped with AI generated SEO content. Probably why they called a code red.

This is self-evidently false; there is plenty of indexed content on the web generate by publicly available LLMs, including OpenAI’s GPT series, and open source implementations of similar technology.

Maybe even more generated by the non-publicly-available ones some firms have for their own use.

Do you think the public release of GPT will increase the volume to unmanageable levels?
I've used to help me come up with some reasonable points for my business website and then expand those. I verify it with my own thinking.
