I know it isn't strictly what they are designed for, but I always go for movie questions which is what I tend to search for a lot.
Impressions: was very underwhelmed previously with charGPTs ability to tell be plot summaries for obscure films. It almost always made it up, even when prompted with a source (e.g. Wikipedia). Asking vague questions like "I can't remember but I'm looking for a film like war games but with a tiny helicopter" chatGPT always presented me with very popular films and could never quite key in on the "toy" or "small" bit of the query.
Bard seemed better in that while it couldn't quite get the movie right (for the record google itself gets the movie easily, Defense Play) it did eventually give me the right plot. Same with Ghost Fever which no matter what I did ChatGPT would always hallucinate the plot of. Unlike ChatGPT, Bard gave me the specific Wikipedia link quite often as well. It did make up the people and box office of obscure films pretty much universally.
Bard was actually really impressive for returning obscure results (which ChatGPT always seemed reluctant to do). I asked for another ghost film from 1987, and it happily returned Ghost Riders a film with a scant 200 votes on IMDb. Whenever I asked ChatGPT to give me bad or obscure films it would give me movies like Top Gun no matter how much I insisted I wanted something obscure.
I wouldn't trust either really, but Bard seems slightly closer to what I would hope a search/GPT integration felt like. But again I'm probably using it much differently than is intended to how others might interact with it.
