Not when compared to the ones in the Pro tier, this is incorrect.
Get back to me when we have a DeepSeek-efficient option that has nothing to do with Stargate or Elon Musk.
After Deekseek release;
OpenAI: gpt search for all
Google: Gemini 2.0 4all.
Apple: this is the new Events app!

Or maybe Wikipedia is wrong?
If you look at the two source articles in the Wikipedia articles, they both state 400,000 square feet. Interestingly one of the sources says it is "4,00,000" and if you search the web you'll find several other articles having the exact same spelling mistake.
If you look up the newest search results on this building, most of them from 2024, you'll find the exact numbers from the Wikipedia article suggesting they just copied it from there.
How is this different from using any other single source?
The difference is, you can ask chatgpt or other AI a question, send it off to the internet and it will review a bunch of websites and pull the relevant information out. It will provide citations for the sites it references that you can check against.
Search engines today are pretty trash and you need to go through several websites to get a good idea of what you're looking for. That's the difference.
Also, ai and search are two different but somewhat similar things. If you just want basic facts: use a search engine.
If you want directions on HOW to do something or HOW something works or say, assistance with a calculation or concept, an AI search or AI query is often better.
e.g. this is a real world example of how I used chatgpt just last week.
This took me like 5 minutes (most of that time me thinking about the questions I wanted to ask, the answers were returned in seconds) instead of calculating things myself after looking up the formulas, etc.
My initial query was because I noticed an interest charge of > 350 on my account, which was what I was expecting every week as per the chat (as that is what my financial management software indicated). Turns out it was indeed for approx 10 days as it was during the loan setup. I figured that out myself in 5 minutes rather than waiting 2 business days for the bank to get back to my bank message.
And yes, neither google nor humans are 100% reliable and need to be fact checked too.

Wow, these solid takes that MR writers are putting is commendable.
Being fed up of google’s shenanigans is definitely a wide common sentiment that doesn’t get shouted loud enough except by people in comments.
And now more recent article related to iPhone’s base 128GB storage being also stingy.
Glad to see them taking a heavier client/consumer side perspective

they are making it harder to understand the differences. I tried many AIs including the reasoning ones and they all seem to answer similarly
I don't know what you're asking but you won't notice a big difference with simple questions. The more advanced stuff you do the bigger the difference.
