Here lies the problem, ChatGPT is not a search engine, instead you can think of it as a compressed JPEG of the Internet (Credits to Ted Chiang). It can get you things that LOOK right if you squint your eyes a bit, but you just can't be sure that it is not just some random compression artifacts.

The problem is that OpenAI is hyping ChatGPT up as something that it is not.
