'Google is done': World's most powerful AI chatbot ChatGPT offers human-like alternative to search engines

The latest iteration of a "mind-blowing" artificial intelligence chatbot has led to speculation that it could revolutionise entire industries and even potentially replace popular tools like Google's search engine. ChatGPT, created by leading AI research lab OpenAI, serves as a general purpose language model capable of understanding and generating human-like responses to a wide range of queries. Unlike traditional search engines, which rely on keyword matching to provide results, ChatGPT uses a combination of advanced algorithms and artificial intelligence to understand the intent behind a user's query. This means users can search for information using natural language, rather than having to use specific keywords or phrases, potentially making it more intuitive as a tool for finding information. "The dialogue format makes it possible for ChatGPT to answer followup questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests," OpenAI explained in a blog post.
