Gemini was a little more robotic than ChatGPT, but still impressively natural compared to AI voice assistants from just a few years ago. Gemini wasn't quite as conversational, but it was still easy to activate and deactivate the camera in Advanced Voice Mode.

Despite their growing popularity, AI chatbots like ChatGPT aren't impacting Google's search traffic, according to Google itself.

It’s a strange glimpse into the human mind: If you filter search results on Google, Bing, and other search engines to only include URLs from the domain “https://chatgpt.com/share,” you can find strangers’ conversations with ChatGPT.

OpenAI launches Study Mode for ChatGPT, intensifying a battle with Google over the future of AI-powered education

OpenAI launched its most advanced language model Thursday with the release of GPT-5, a flagship product the company says will enhance ChatGPT as it reportedly nears a $500 billion valuation and aims to stave off competitors in Google, Anthropic and more.

Thousands of private ChatGPT conversations have been appearing in Google search results because of the chatbot's "Share" feature, which the company recently removed following a backlash.

However, Sam Altman, OpenAI’s CEO, stated during a U.S. Senate subcommittee hearing on AI in May that, despite some advantages of ChatGPT, it will “probably not” replace Google. As more players have entered the AI race in the last year, it remains to be seen how it will play out.

Traditional search prioritized backlinks and domain authority. AI search prioritizes clarity, context and community validation.

Still using Google Search to learn new things and find information online? ChatGPT approaches discovery in a completely different way, and will likely give you a better experience.

OpenAI is seemingly also solely responsible for removing the chats, perhaps most quickly by using a tool that Google provides to block pages from appearing in search results. But that tool does not stop pages from being indexed by other search engines, so it's possible chats will disappear sooner in Google results than other search engines.
