Unrelated to tricking it, I've found that ChatGPT is a better Google for lots of questions. Specific examples:
* I needed to know what the field was for filtering by container in Splunk. The first 5 Google results didn't include the answer (container_name). ChatGPT included it in a code block and also gave extra information that would be useful if I didn't understand Splunk at all.
* I needed to know how to set up Datadog intelligent alerts (I only knew they existed and could do some automatic learning for threshold setting, but that was it). Google's top 5 didn't include specific examples of intelligent alerts. ChatGPT gave me step-by-step instructions.
- Swizec 4y ago> ChatGPT is a better Google for lots of questions The danger of using generative AI like this is that a lot of what these tools say is objectively wrong. Their entire raison d'etre is bullshitting based on patterns of writing. The model doesn't know what it's writing about. Yes the answers are coherent-looking and likely even internally consistent. But they're made up.
- matkoniecz 4y agoThat is much lesser problem where you can verify with GPT acting as provider of keywords for search
- seydor 4y agoGoogle is also wrong often with all the seo game. I wonder how openAi plans to tackle the truth problem
- Swizec 4y ago> Google is also wrong often with all the seo game Worse! Google sometimes incorrectly summarizes an article into a search result widget. I've seen google answers that showed the opposite conclusion of the source article when you click through and read because it picked 2 key sentences and dropped the connecting tissue that boils down to "but" or "and not"
