Question for you -

> better at incorporating search results in its answer vs gpt-4 bing

How are you getting it to incorporate search results in its answers?

I can't for the life of me get it to find any real-time external data except for the 5 official 'extensions' under settings, which are for Flights/Hotels/Maps/Workspace/YouTube.

Did you mean that, or have you found a workaround to get Bard to actually search on Google?

You have to click the "G" icon in its response to "verify answers with Google".

Okay, but to clarify:

- This is not Gemini performing a search. - This is Google providing a layer of ass-covering in case Gemini produces a factually incorrect reply.

Right? I am looking for something like ChatGPT with Bing - it will run a query, pull back results, and operate on them, all dynamically within the system.

Gemini doesn't seem to do this, no matter how you try to wrangle it.

I got it quickly with the question: > what is the difference between polyptyton and antaclanasis

I just tried this but it doesn't indicate it searched the web. (On Gemini mobile app on android).
