It was hella useful for research in college and it made me think more because it kept giving me useful sources and telling me the context and where to find it, i still did the work and it actually took longer because I wouldnt commit to topics or keep adding more information. Just dont have it spit out your essay, it sucks at that, have it spit out topics and info on those topics with sources, then use that to build your work.
Google used to be good, but this is far superior, I used bings chatgpt when I was in school idk whats good now (it only gave a paragraph max and included sources for each sentence)
It worked for school stuff well, I always added "prioritize factual sources with .edu " or something like that. Specify that it is for a research paper and tell it to look for stuff how you would.
I wouldnt use it on current info like that only scraped data, like using it on history classes itll be useful, using it for sales right now definitely not
Ive also tried using it for old games but at the time it said wailord was the heaviest Pokemon (the blimp whale in fact does not weigh more than the sky scraper).
When all the hw answers sites put up paywalls, id get the steps to do the problem off chatgpt, id try to find it off google first, see the answer with paywall then try chatgpt.

How did you manage to actually use bing gpt? I’ve tried like 20 times and it’s wrong the majority of the time

Only time I told it to be factual was looking at 4k laptops, it gave me 5 laptops, 4 marked as 4k, 0 of the 5 were actually 4k.
That was last year though so maybe it’s improved by now

Honestly, i’ve had fairly good luck with AI, im not sure how yall havent, its really not that bad, I typically gotta make it bad on purpose for fun.
I don’t put effort in a 30 line question with a ton of specific stuff. I just ask it a question.
What is the heaviest Pokemon?
That’s it. And then it goes and finds a Pokemon that isn’t the heaviest now, and at no point in the series was it ever the heaviest.
If I need multiple lines and clarification and stuff, that makes it worse than just finding it myself.
Btw heaviest Pokemon is a many way tie as the weights don’t go over 999.9kg.

if you needed to find a source for the heaviest pokemon say that and you have a better chance, otherwise you get random comments its scraped
I just asked it what the heaviest Pokemon was, and it said wailord. I dont care about what it uses as a source as long as it’s right.
again not a usecase id use it for, its basically a better search engine that summarizes and skips through the ads and bs on the front page
