chatGPT recently started making it loud, that way Microsoft rushed to pour $10 billion into it, so with this new model, are we going to witness the end of Google control over the way we search?

Google can easily replicate ChatGPT with enough engineers, computing power and outsourced labor. There's nothing secret in the inner workings.

That said, maybe we'll be able to use search engines again without wading through pages of mud when there's more competition...

Facebook had enough engineers and computing power did Facebook kill Snapchat or TikTok? I believe the original idea can win at the end whenever you have in hand to compete.

Did google kill Facebook with google+? Did microsoft kill android with windows phone?

I don't know, i might be wrong!

Then why would ChatGPT kill Google?

[โ€“] Turbula@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

Google already LaMDA, which is not publicly accessible but likely as good or better than ChatGPT. They would certainly release it the public if their core business were in danger. So unfortunately, no, I don't think so.

Search finds existing knowledge. ChatGPT easily makes up lies as answers. I don't think this is comparable.

Google, Facebook or Microsoft can buy it if this is likely. If can't buy it they can get it banned.
