Not sure about that. ChatGPT is much greater than Google Search ever was, and that wasn't a bubble.

ChatGPT may be better than Google Search in content but at end of day, you have to make money and last report I saw, ChatGPT is burning through money at prestigious rate.

Training, yes, but they recoup inference costs through subscriptions.
