For anyone that is interested. This is the ChatGPT reply to the exact same question asked in the preview in the article. Here are a few things that the James Webb Space Telescope is expected to discover that you could share with your 9-year-old: The formation of stars and planets: The James Webb Space Telescope will be able to observe the birth of stars and the formation of planetary systems, helping us understand how our own solar system was created. The search for life on other planets: The telescope will be able to search for signs of life on other planets, such as the presence of water or certain gases in their atmospheres. The history of the universe: The James Webb Space Telescope will be able to look back in time to observe some of the first galaxies that formed after the Big Bang, helping us learn about the early history of the universe. Understanding black holes: The telescope will be able to study black holes and how they interact with the galaxies around them, helping us better understand these mysterious objects. The study of exoplanets: The James Webb Space Telescope will be able to study exoplanets, or planets outside our solar system, in greater detail, helping us learn more about the diversity of planetary systems in the universe. The Google reply is obviously better because it tells you actual discoveries, while ChatGPT changes the question to expected discoveries.

This difference can be ascribed to ChatGPT’s knowledge cutoff date in 2021.

ChatGPT is a pure conversational model, while Google can integrate this into a vast knowledge model to work with actual facts. (Just speculation; Googler, but no inside info on this.) Of course, as Microsoft adds ChatGPT into Bing they should also integrate it into the rest of their search stack. This will be an interesting horse-race to watch since it won't be just the AI models but also a massive amount of secondary infrastructure for desired outcomes with content safety (no erotica or nazi pamphlets on demand), IP protection (no plagiarism), political and cultural sensibilities, disinfo, and a ton of other problems.

This was a quite clever choice; JWST is just newenough that ChatGPT's current model wasn't trained on its results.

That’s a byproduct of ChatGPTs 2021 training date. If you give ChatGPT updated information about JWST and then ask it for a summary, it will give a result much more like google’s.
