Someone apparently proclaimed that #ChatGPT will kill #Google within two years. I am either missing something or a really weird user case for both tools.
I use Google to discover content or services, or to ask specific facts based questions, or for translations. As good as ChatGPT seems to be with inconsequential waffle, it doesn't seem to do any of the above well. At best, for some stuff it pretends to do well by sounding sensible. Let's agree it's not the same thing.

That's not what they mean. What they mean is that the technology behind it allows a user-interface that is much more compelling, and threatens the ad-revenue model that Google has used to build its business. The answers we get from ChatGPT are superb - making sure that the are also true, and backing that up with existing links is a very small engineering challenge. It's actually even being solved right now with services like You.com, Perplexity, Neeva – and the one I think is the best so far among them: Phind.
