For me Google serves several roles. 1. Bookmark manager. I can write "maven download sources", click on baeldung and copy&paste command from there. I did that 100 times and I'll do it 101-th time. I have plenty of webpages that I know they exist and I know how to find them. I'm too lazy to actually bookmark and organize them and Google works just fine for me. 2. Search for new knowledge in general domains. This category of queries I sometimes use ChatGPT for it, but not always. It's hard to formulate the rules, but I have a feeling which tool is more useful for given question. Sometimes it's just quicker to type few keywords in Google rather than asking full-fledged question to ChatGPT and wait for it to return full-fledged answer. 3. Search for new knowledge in arcane domains. For example I might need new info about my city, where to buy laptop, etc. ChatGPT might know about US, but its knowledge about Kazakhstan is definitely limited, shallow and outdated, so real web comes to rescue here. 4. Using Google-specific functions. For example I very often use queries like "site:bla.com something", because website-hosted searches in 100% cases are braindead and I wouldn't even bother with it. For me, ChatGPT main function is to create new content. For example I might want to start new Go project, so I'll ask ChatGPT to write hello world golang tutorial for me, then ask follow-up questions like what identifier naming should I follow, etc. There are, of course, hundreds of similar articles in the Internet, but ChatGPT delivers tailored data much faster.
