Because of this, I find it basically boils down to a fancy search engine.
That's the thing though, it's not a search engine.
It's a language prediction model, if you ask something that it has learned well and predicts correctly you'll get a nice answer that makes you feel like it's a search engine.
If you ask something more obscure or confuse it with words, you'll get back garbage that hopefully doesn't look like a right answer, because it's much better to have a useless answer than a deceiving bad one.
