    Many times it's on par with ChatGPT but always faster, which is actually quite convenient considering how long the answers of LLMs usually are.

    A good alternative to ChatGPT. Claude uses a different technology, so it's truly a separate development. However, Claude is more censored on many topics. Also, you only get 10 free messages every few hours for any internal version of the chat.

    This one searches for info in search engines, it isn't meant to be conversational. It won't tell you anything that you can't find on google but it googles well and summarizes the findings for you with links to sources

    Allows you to use ChatGPT without signing up for OpenAI. Also allows you to use many other AIs and to create your own personality for them.

    Very useful for comparing the output of different AIs.

    very slow and too limited number of answer in same chat even if we are connected

    Too limited in its responses and capabilities, overly censored, too lazy, and with a very short context menu, even with a paid subscription.

    And the fact that it couldn't remember that I wanted to communicate in one language and constantly started talking to me in another just because my geolocation was in that country. Really? No, come on!

    the model is directly tampered with by elon musk or an associate to endorse his political narratives and conspiracy theories and even to speak positively of adolf hitler. it is also now being used to generate highly illegal imagery. this service is to be avoided
