IIUC the criticism in your post comes down to this:
1) Neither ChatGPT, nor Bing can access URLs when you ask them to.
2) However, similarly to Perplexity.ai and Phind.com, Bing infers a search query from your message, does a search, and then summarises the first 3–5 results. ChatGPT doesn't yet offer such a functionality.
3) Bing Chat has a much more restrictive system prompt, which results in hallucinations and lies happening less often.
4) The summary of gpt-3.5-turbo-based ChatGPT was less creative than then summary of the Bing Chat GPT-4 instance.
If I understood the points correctly, the comparison is… flawed, in my opinion.
