The competitive moat is rapidly eroding. Everyone in my circle has mentioned that their use of Google has dropped by 50% or more. ChatGPT delivers so much more context that almost every user who has tried it now invariably wants to keep coming back to it

Google’s own language model, Gemini, simply hasn’t captured the same mind share as ChatGPT. Although I’m a shareholder and do want to give Gemini a try now and then, my growing habit is to go straight to ChatGPT.
