ChatGPt is not a facts/news service. It's output is canned by it's system prompt. Infact it's cut-off dates far more into the past compared to other AI services. So the "news" it dishes could be outdated unless it decides search web, in which case it can't be better than google.

is your comment from last year? Because ChatGPT now to me is just a machine that translates prompts to web searches. It's better than Google for unobscure results (which is the majority of searches) and also because there are no ads (yet). You can make the argument that it's not better than Google's AI Mode (not Google Search), but I personally prefer ChatGPT/Grok than AI Mode.

Original point stands that AI is useful and better than manual searches.

Do you think the average people rigorously query multiple angles and carefully read every one of the google results, to synthesize a well rounded viewpoint on any given topic? No, but with LLMs they can do that in one prompt.
