>ChatGPT tends to be more focused on what you asked for

…even if it has to invent people, places, things or events to satisfy your focus.

Do you have a particular example where ChatGPT does better than googling something? I’m especially interested in your example since we agree that googling entails using humans cognitive ability to make sense of things.

Can you elaborate on how the ChatGPT software does better than looking stuff up?

I do not argue that you don’t seem to get any value out of using ChatGPT, I’m curious about the big difference in quality between the knowledge you get from the ChatGPT page vs what knowledge you can get by googling something.
