I feel like I’m missing out on something but other than to summarize text or fill pointless and lazy homework assignments I don’t have much of a use of gpt search.

#37You would open Chrome, go to Hacker News, login, and say in the comment box - "GPT, please read this page and make a funny but insightful post about how GPT is a danger to all of us".
In the mail app: "make an excuse to the manager for why I will be late at work today".

If I search for something like "micropython html parser" I expect the top results to say "Missing: micropython | Must include: micropython".
Yes Google, it was the first term I entered for a reason don't cha think?
