Proof that ChatGPT Plus is secretly Google-powered - “orphan page” experiment

1. I coined a nonsense word. 2. I then put it on a page not linked anywhere. 3. Forced Google to index it via Search Console; left all other engines unaware. 4. Asked ChatGPT Plus to define the term → it quoted my hidden page verbatim. 5. Ran the same query in Bing, DDG, Yandex → no results
