    I’ve been using bing for the past 6 months or so, ever since the chat gpt integration.

    In 6 months, I’ve earned enough points to get a $5 taco bell gift certificate.

    Overall, the quality of results that I get are… Not as good as google. I find myself frequently re-searching things on Google because I actually do not find what I’m looking for on bing. And then on Google, the perfect result is the first or second listing.

    Now, Google is integrating bard into searches. Sometimes it sucks, yes. But it is basically just as good as the bing chat gpt thing. So… Yeah. I’m going to go back to Google search soon.

      Bing is better for images and videos I feel, and the search quality is better unless you are looking for a very specific term.

      I’m switching from Google now because the results have become unusably bad. They should’ve waited until bard was at least mildly useful.

      Blacklisting sites from Google isn’t enough to keep it usable anymore.

        For more conversational things that require more up-to-date knowledge and things that I need to verify the facts/sources for, I’ll use bing ai. It’s actually quite good for that.

          I like how it references it’s sources.

          Though I’ve pretty much replaced everything but image searches with it, it parses the data really well and gets the most relevant stuff.

          Plus they just hooked it up to DALLE2 so you can feed it images and ask for it to take it as inspiration for other works.

          I fed a couple of Simon stalenhag’s works and asked it to generate a new cover for No Man’s Sky (Stalenhag made the OG one) based on his style but with oil painting. This was one of the outputs.

          It’s really cool how fast it’s come around to be integrated with the rest of the environment. Can’t wait to see what they do next with it. I have a feeling Microsoft and Google will make commercial offerings for personal AI models that will be trained on company data and you’ll be able to use it without worrying if you’re exfiltrating data to OpenAI by using it.

            Oh man that’s such a cool image! And yeah, its super cool what they are doing. I’m excited for DALLE2 to improve to the level of midjourney haha, but even now its pretty great!

            And yeah I agree with you on the direction its going. Specialized models are definitely where its going to go.
