Casual users don't care about ChatGPT or any other smart chat app because they are used to Google Search or classical search bar type web search for decades now.
If chat apps take over, I think they will first taker over desktop computers because on mobile it is easier to type a few keywords in the web search bar and get 5 or 6 relevant web results than it is to chat with a chat bot for like 5 minutes.
Informational quires are most likely to be more useful in chat apps than in the classical web search but navigational and transactional quires are here to stay on Google or whatever search engine comes about.
- kjkjadksj 3y agoI was going to say that mobile can just chat on the mic to the gbt but then I remembered speech to text is an apparently hard problem that no one has made progress on in 15 years
- TeMPOraL 3y agoActually, OpenAI just made the progress you're asking for. Try the voice conversation mode in ChatGPT app (if you can, it's still a beta testing version IIRC). This one is to the likes of Google Assistant as GPT-4 is to GPT-2. Huge quality jump - not only it doesn't suck (like e.g. Google Assistant does), it works, and absurdly well at that. ~1% error rate for me in English, which isn't even my first language, on the go, in rain, next to noisy street...
