I turn to Google when I'm in exploration mode. When I need to dive deep into articles, research, and concepts. Google is my go-to for when I want to get the facts straight and broaden my horizons. πŸ€“ But then, there's my buddy ChatGPT! ✨ I use it whenever I need to cook up some fresh ideas, giving it my detailed instructions. It also helps me craft drafts of whatever I'm itching to write about. What about you?

@sandradjajic right? Sometimes when I have a complex idea, I just write it on ChatGPT and prompt it to make something out of that

@catherine_norris same! I also keep using Google for fact checking. I don't trust ChatGPT 100%

Great question!! I do a similar thing as you. Google is my go-to to learn more about things and to find additional resources to dig deeper, like articles, books, podcasts, etc. ChatGPT helps me overcome the barrier of "white page paralysis" and is also a great brainstorming buddy. It never does the full job for me, but it helps me to get started. I also like how they work in tandem. ChatGPT can inspire me with new insights and Google can help me dig deeper and double-check that ChatGPT isn't just dreaming up things πŸ˜…

@maria_hagsten I do the same! I also use Google to fact check what ChatGPT is saying sometimes!
