    Very similar to ChatGPT, but it mixes both the AI response with search results. So in addition to the response, it provides links to articles and images that could provide additional information. This would be most useful for doing research for a project that requires sources. It looks like it also has a lot of the other features of ChatGPT in their paid for version, like image generation. I'm not really seeing anything giving it an advantage over ChatGPT though.
