Sounds like a great way to get a wrong answer

The great thing about Bing Chat compared to other chatbots is that it sources its claims. I always check the sources before trusting it.

Sounds like a regular search with extra steps

With regular search, I have to look through all kinds of results before I find something, and often I have to adjust my search parameters until the search engine even understands what I’m looking for.

The AI still needs me to actually confirm what it’s saying, but that’s checking 1-3 links, not entire search result pages.

It’s also just waaaaay easier to talk to my search engine in natural language than keywords imo. I never know what keywords get me to my intended destination, I guess the difference is less big for people that do.

It shows it’s work, you can follow it’s citations to ensure it’s not complete bullshit.

Also no seriously these are dumb questions, I was watching Fraiser the other day and it implied his ratings were in the millions, and I asked bing if that was even possible considering he was on AM radio in the 90s (it’s not), but even if it was completely wrong it literally doesn’t matter…
