Please try selecting the text "splitting the G" in your browser, right click, and click "search". Immediately you will see... > ‘splitting the G’ is the act of taking your first sip so precisely that the creamy white head of your drink drops clean through the centre of the “G” in the Guinness logo printed on the glass. Asking ChatGPT for "trivial" questions like this is absolutely bonkers. This is a question that a search engine can answer immediately and accurately. There is no reason to gamble whatsoever. Suggesting that we must "get used to the idea that an 80% confident answer is better than none", despite a properly sourced answer being easier to obtain instantly via a search engine, is bizarre, and only a reflection of how much brainrot these things are causing. |

Select and right-click is not much faster than my shortcut of copy => Opt-Z => paste. "Ask Gemini" is also there on right click but ChatGPT is my "ask any question" workflow that covers any request.
If I did Google it, I would rather take Google's AI answer than parse out either of the top two results. Neither answers without clicking through, the second offers me disambiguation I simply don't care about.

It's simply more efficient to be 20% skeptical of an instant answer than to try to reach 100% confidence with a bunch of clicks and reading. Even when all the readers of my comment have to be skeptical as well.
