Is Google AI or Chat GPT More Accurate in Researching Guitar Purchases?

I have an opinion on which AI tool is best. Yes, I know there are other AI tools. But for today, just looking at Google AI and Chat GPT.

For guitar and bass players choosing the correct AI or artificial intelligence tool matters when we research guitars, basses, and/or amps.

Google – How Heavy is a Cort Action DLX V Plus?

That was my Google search prior to buying trading for my Cort 5 String Bass.

Here’s the result from Google AI shown below

Google AI was Wrong by 4 Pounds About the Weight of My Bass Guitar

Google Artificial Intelligence said weight was 11 pounds. Apparently their AI search found one website that said the Cort bass weighed 5 kilos or 11 pounds.

My Cort Bass Guitar actually weighs 6.8 pounds.

So Google AI or Artificial Intelligence was off by over 4 pounds. They thought my Cort Action DLX V Plus was 11 pounds when it was less than 7 pounds.

Why was Google AI so Wrong about the Weight of my Cort Bass?

Frankly, their AI search was a bit sloppy.

They found one website from a guitar re-seller who wrote that the Cort bass was 11 pounds. That was it. Wrong.

If Google AI had dug deeper they would have at least found a www.TalkBass.com article where one user said his Cort Action DLX V Plus weighed 8.3 pounds.

Chat GPT – How Heavy is a Cort Action DLX V Plus?

Chat GPT was more accurate. See below.

Chat GPT was better than Google AI for two major reasons.

1. Chat GPT was refined enough to mention that one user said his Cort weighed 8.3 pounds. This was the www.TalkBass.com reference I mentioned earliar in this blog post.
2. Chat GPT wrote: Expect the Cort bass…to weigh 8 to 9 pounds.
   • That’s reasonable.
   • Once again, my Cort bass weighed 6.8 pounds (hurray).

Try Chat GPT in the Future on your Guitar, Bass, and/or Amp Purchases

I know, this is a sample size of just ONE. So this isn’t scientific.

But for me, Chat GPT will be my first choice in researching a guitar, bass, or amp I have never seen but wish to purchase.
