What are your thoughts on the subject? Do you think ChatGPT can take over the search engines? Let’s clarify, though difficult to estimate the future possibilities one certain thing is that both are equally competitive in their fields making information retrieval and generation convenient. ChatGPT was introduced to us on the 30th of November 2022 by OpenAI, a research organization. ChatGPT, the natural language processing tool has been trained over a vast set of data containing 175 billion neural network parameters. ChatGPT processes a wide variety of applications like content creation, language translation, and chatbot creation to provide a seamless user experience. With the search engine, the goal is to crawl through the websites to present the best search results to the users. To understand who wins the race and stays for the longest, let’s start exploring:
A drawback of ChatGPT that is gaining the wrath of the users is its incapability to provide updated information in the results. As the natural language processing tools roll out results based on the last updated principles it is seen maximum the time the important known about is either missing or incorrect.
A habit of ChatGPT that is drawing it backward in the race with the search engines is its adamancy to not disclose the information sources. Many times the users take steps back when they can’t find the sources to check the information’s accuracy and relevancy.
Though ChatGPT has a wide knowledge base still the natural language processing tool fails to provide comprehensive data to the queries. This inefficiency is generated because ChatGPT operates on pre-trained information.
Search engines are super efficient in providing accurate, latest subject information. The working model of the search engines allows them to crawl through the websites, collect important information, and process for indexing. Through this the search engines have wide knowledge in-store, quenching the thirst of the users with the relevant information.
Search engines judge information credibility through website crawling before ranking the information on the search engine result pages. The SERP prioritizes information that is true to the extracted sources.
Search engines elevate user search experiences by mentioning the sites of information retrieval. This pleases the users as they can significantly trace down the actual knowledge site thereby building faith in the information. Through citations, the websites gain organic traffic and move a step forward in ranking higher on the search results.
We have arrived at the end of the blog but are still finding it hard to conclude which one shall rule the time. But with few drawbacks in ChatGPT, it is evident those areas are won by search engines. Though both are opposites in nature they tend to perform similar functions to the user queries.
