A friend mentioned to me that you're a software engineer at Google. Thank you for taking the time to have a look at what we're building with Andi, and giving us detailed feedback on the results. I mentioned that we don't log searches, so examples like the ones you found where things go wrong are very helpful for improving results. And that's even more the case when the examples are from folks who work at Google. In general, Googlers are more likely than most people to be able to find bad results. Long term, we think our approach can do better than Google's, even though we have much work to do. As an illustration of the difference of approach, I thought you might be interested in this example where Andi gets the right answer, and Google gets it completely wrong, because it is trying to extract snippets and re-format them. 1. "what is the gdp per capita of china vs new zealand" Google displays a table that shows completely wrong information: ``` GDP per capita [+] 2020 €36,371 GDP per capita [+] 2020 $41,165 ``` Andi's answer: "In 2020, the gross domestic product of China was about 10500 US dollars per year per person. In 2020, the gross domestic product of New Zealand was about 41478 US dollars per year per person". (sourced from Wolfram|Alpha in this case)
