I’m sorry, I should be more clear by what I mean by example. Rather than hypothetical possible categories of tasks, can you give a particular task in which ChatGPT does better than googling information and thinking about the information that’s displayed to you?

A task in this case could be finding out where a particular Vermeer is hung, or which viscosity of oil to put into your car’s engine — a specific concrete task in which ChatGPT provides you with knowledge better than a web search does.

I won’t argue that ChatGPT is better at writing lists than Google is. Google isn’t a website that writes lists so that comparison would be pointless.
