Article By Lennox Galanje Since its debut in late November 2022, ChatGPT has become a worldwide phenomenon, gaining over 1 million users in just one week and sending Google into an existential crisis. So, does ChatGPT pose a threat to Google Search? Can ChatGPT ever take the role of Google Search? Who will triumph in the conflict between ChatGPT and Google? Well, let us find out. Even though we cannot forecast the future, we can investigate, play with, and contrast ChatGPT and Google Search to obtain the answers to the above question. Simple enough, we’ll put some questions to the pair and see who responds more effectively. But first, let us get the fundamentals straight. How Dissimilar Is ChatGPT to Google Search? Although on paper ChatGPT and Google Search are both intended to respond to your questions, their processes are what distinguish them. ChatGPT comprehends the question, looks up the information in its database, and then gives a dialogue-based response like a friend or expert would. On the other hand, Google takes your query, searches through billions of web pages, and then displays relevant web pages that potentially contain the solution. Google is a search engine, whereas Chat GPT is an AI language model. Chat GPT produces human-like responses to answer questions, whereas Google produces search results that match your query. Google is genuinely user-friendly, but ChatGPT outperforms it. The AI responds to your question immediately, thanks to ChatGPT conversational methodology. If necessary, it provides explanations, although generally, the response will be uncomplicated. Google only retrieves results, in contrast. You’ll need to scroll, pick a relevant website, and quickly scan its SEO-friendly content to find the solution. Even though Google provides a feature snippet area that directly responds to the query, ChatGPT outperforms it. 8 BETTER INTERACTION AND CREATIVITY? adapt to in order to get there. Also, Google regularly adjusts its features Google provides as many results as you like to your question, but it is still constrained by the data and algorithms to the tastes and sensibilities contained in web pages. As opposed to ChatGPT, of its users. Thus, ChatGPT may have trouble which can exactly tailor the information to surpassing Google. We anticipate that both will your needs. ChatGPT will carry out the work, coexist and eventually improve our quality of as opposed to Google, which will direct you to life. To each their own is a rather cliché response a strategy, tool, or approach that can achieve the goal. It is now possible to accomplish all when asked which platform will work best of these tasks, including solving a math puzzle, for you. We advise you to have both close at developing a code, summarising a thesis, and hand. You already know how to use Google, so experiment with ChatGPT a little to see how it composing emails. Using this analogy, Google can be compared to a teacher who teaches by example, whereas operates. Afterwards, utilize the tool according to your ChatGPT can be compared to that nerdy buddy need; if you need assistance with an assignment or cousin who will complete your homework. or a topic, use ChatGPT. Use Google to get (While we’re not completely sure if that’s good recommendations, news about current affairs, expert opinions or reviews, or material that has or bad, for the time being it is what it is.) CONCLUSION A technology that isn’t even in its infancy has little chance against Google, which has been ruling the world for about 20 years. Although having the necessary foundation and power to been properly sourced. Above all, we should keep in mind that, ChatGPT produces human-like responses to answer questions, whereas Google produces search results that match your query. reign, ChatGPT still has a lot to learn, grow, and 9 INIFINITECH MAGAZINE ELON MUSK’S WIN OVER TESLA LAWSUIT By Lennox Galanje According to a California jury’s decision, Elon Musk is not responsible for losses suffered by Tesla shareholders as a result of his contentious “funding secured” tweet from 2018. The three-week trial over a class-action shareholder lawsuit involving the tweet, in which the billionaire declared that he was considering taking Tesla private for $420 per share and had “financing secured,” came to a unanimous conclusion on Friday Feb 3, 2023 in US District Court. The CEO was forced to resign from his role as executive chairman of Tesla and pay millions of dollars in fines and legal costs as a result of those two remarks. Musk has discussed the financing he would require to take Tesla private with leaders of the Saudi sovereign wealth fund. That was anything but “secured,” though. In their lawsuit, a number of Tesla shareholders who claimed they lost a sizeable amount of their investments due to the share price fluctuation after the tweet sought financial compensation from Musk, Tesla, and other Tesla directors. The jury, however, found that the plaintiffs had failed to establish any of the four allegations they had made against Musk and the other defendants. It’s a relief that the people’s wisdom won out. Once the judgement was rendered, Musk tweeted. “I really appreciate the jury’s unanimous decision,” 10 INIFINITECH MAGAZINE Tesla shares initially rose 11% on the day about Tesla beforehand. Musk tweeted “financing secured,” but they In his testimony last month, Glen Littleton, never reached the predicted $420 mark, the primary plaintiff in the shareholder peaking at $387.46 instead. As it became action, said that Musk’s “funding secured” evident that the funding was less than certain, tweet caused him to lose more than 75% of they quickly dropped significantly below their his assets. “I needed to secure my financial pre-tweet price of $344, reaching $263.24 a future. This threatened my ability to make month later. It led to the shareholder lawsuit, a living “Regarding Tesla not actually going which has taken more than four years to private for $420 per share, he remarked. finally get to trial. Tesla shares went on an Yet, Musk claimed in his testimony that incredible run, increasing by 1520% from Tesla’s stock price does not change because the day of the tweet to its record high in of his tweets. Simply, because of a tweet, the November 2021, when losses turned into gains nearly a year after the tweet. After causal relationship is obviously not present, according to Musk. Musk said that because accounting for the two stock splits that have Twitter has a character limit, it is difficult to be occurred since that day, the record close of as thorough, subject to rules, and reviewed $409.97 translates to $6,150 per share. Tesla by financial disclosure experts as one might shares are still up 384% since the day of the be in a formal financial report. 2018 tweet’s closing, despite a 70% slide from their all-time high to Friday’s close. Musk’s tweet also spurred the Securities and Exchange Commission, a government body tasked with safeguarding investors by compelling executives to disclose the truth, to file a civil lawsuit. At first, it aimed to have him removed as CEO of Tesla. In the end, it reached a settlement with Musk in which he and Tesla both consented to pay $20 million in penalties, Musk renounced his position as chairman of the firm but kept his CEO title. Additionally, it mandated that other corporate executives evaluate each tweet he sent out that contained crucial information 11 INIFINITECH MAGAZINE Galaxy S23 Series By Victor Tadiwa Just like last year, it’s the month of February and we get the latest offering from the Samsung Galaxy S series, the S23 line-up, that is the S23, S23+ and the S23 Ultra. Samsung played it safe this time around and did not make huge design changes from the previous models. Instead, they focused on improving the things that really matter on a day-to-day basis, that is the performance, battery life, the software and the cameras.

A few the HomePod in favour of the small $99 HomePod Mini which they released in 2020. In January 2023, Apple announced the return of the original HomePod with a price tag of $299. So, let’s take a look at what the second generation of the HomePod has to offer. On the outside of the new Home- Pod there are very little changes, it’s the ward facing 4-inch woofer, five tweeters grees arrangement, four mics instead of six in the 2018 model. The 2023 HomePod is powered by the S7 chip from old Apple watches. It uses Wi-Fi 4 instead of Wi-Fi 5, but that’s not a problem. This smart speaker is one of the first Apple products to support the Matter standard. Another big change is the availabil- same design as the original model. It ity of some hardware which has been flat and is placed below its position on Pod Mini since it came out in 2020, the has a lager top interactive display that is the original model.

These sensors will allow users to get the temperature and the humidity levels of their indoors and they’re also going to be enabled in the HomePod Mini soon. INIFINITECH MAGAZINE The HomePod still have support for the Apple voice assistant, Siri and music playback, you can just pass music playing from your iPhone to the HomePod. The speaker is now capable of Dolby Atmos and spatial audio (surround sound) and has real time audio tuning to adjust the audio output based on where it is placed in the room. The 2023 HomePod support stereo pairing, so, if you buy two HomePods of the same model you can use them as stereo speakers. Remember you cannot stereo pair with different HomePod models like the 2018 model and the 2023 model, it will not work. The new HomePod is a good smart speaker, the audio output is still very good and music playback too. The speaker can recognise up to six different users and it will respond uniquely for each user. Third party music apps like Deezer can now be controlled from the smart speaker. Getting the new HomePod is a good deal if you just want to have the latest gadgets from Apple. The HomePod Mini is still a good solid speaker for just $99 if you are looking for a speaker to listen to podcasts and music, and do basic interactions like controlling your smart home gadgets, and it also sounds great. Other good smart speakers include the Amazon Echo which offers the same features and capabilities and can even go louder at a cheaper price. 19 INIFINITECH MAGAZINE 20 INIFINITECH MAGAZINE SCAM ALERT!!! By Cephas Nharaunda Scammers are now using bots to generate a well orchestrated scheme to deceive people into entering their bank codes & other confidential information online, and exploit them. A popup can just appear on a user’s screen demanding a two-factor authentication code sent to them via email or text from a bank or financial bearer. If the user enters the code the bot will simply record the details and use them to hack one’s bank account & make unauthorized withdrawals. Below is a concise list of the most prevalent scams that are being used to bait the unwary. Free Gift QR Code Scammers have developed applications to trace the digital activity of a user. One easy target would be a regular customer at a food outlet, who scans a QR code to make payments online. A scammer can deceptively send that person a message offering them a gift card or that they have won a competition & that they should scan a QR code to access the prize they have just won. Once a person scans that code that would grant the scammer access to their bank accounts & other personal information that can be used for blackmail. 21 INIFINITECH MAGAZINE Employment scams This method has been used oftentimes by human traffickers to lure internet users in developing countries in their unscrupulous web. Scammers nowadays have the patience to trace a person’s activity on the Internet & thus know exactly how to sell them a pie in the sky. Many have survived the ordeal of human trafficking to tell their testimony which to naysayers may seem like a tale of two cities. It is therefore crucial to be vigilant & exercise due diligence whenever one stumbles on an opportunity that may seem ‘too good to be true’. Human trafficking is one of the ultimate means to violet a person’s basic human rights, it is barbaric & should be hampered with adequate force. Phishing scams Most professionals use electronic mail in their day-to-day operations, and it is not unusual for one to be extremely exhausted at any time of the day. Due to weariness, one may not be as vigilant to do proper diligence by verifying the authenticity of an email or a link. In a matter of seconds, a simple click would invite a scammer to peruse confidential & crucial information 22 in one’s email. One simple click can crush the system of a computer. Phishing has been further revamped by bots wholly infused with Artificial Intelligence. To sum up, it is of primary importance for individuals who indulge in social media & the internet in general, to exercise extreme caution when they stumble upon suspicious material online. One way is to cross check a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) by visiting the website to check the veracity of the content embedded. Another way to forestall the ever-lurking danger of being scammed is to not respond to calls from unknown numbers, or responding to texts or emails that appear suspicious. INIFINITECH MAGAZINE DEAD INTERNET THEORY By Lennox Galanje Dead-internet theory. It’s terrifying, but I love it. Even though it seems like you’re hearing a lot of bots, you’re not the only human on the internet. Like a lot of people online, I enjoy researching bizarre conspiracy ideas. The “Dead Internet” idea was one of the more recent ones I heard. According to this notion, bots masquerading as people are now the majority online rather than actual people. According to this notion, social media is dead, and all you’re really dealing with is what “they” want you to see. In other words, most of the time, the people you communicate with don’t actually exist. I’m unsure about “they’re” identity. I’ll be truthful. You might not always feel as though you are speaking to actual people. Sometimes, we’re all aware that the “people” that message us are actually automated systems. Have you ever had the unsettling impression that you are on a website populated entirely by robots? Ever had the impression that the internet is artificial? This feeling does, however, occasionally come over you for a few reasons. Having seen the piece on The Atlantic, I performed a little investigation. What I could find online and my personal theories about it are presented below. First off, there are a lot of bots on social media. We are all aware that scripts exist that allow individuals to build automated chatbots. As customer service bots, they are employed when applied for good. They spam us and harass us when they are utilized negatively. Also, bots aren’t usually just lifeless lines of 24 code. In some cases, the “bots” are genuine people who are employed by organizations in an effort to influence people by using the bandwagon effect. During the Trump election, everyone recalled hearing about Russian troll farms. According to some data, it appears to be occurring on r/antiwork as well. The first time you see fresh messages in your inbox, it’s natural to be wary. Many phrases have become commonplace because the internet makes global proximity possible. The fact that online material is rarely centred on a single region is one of the reasons it sometimes feels false. We now have a global conversation that frequently revolves on entire nations rather than specific cities thanks to the internet. You wouldn’t believe how much this is influencing our cultural norms, writing style, and speaking. In many ways, the regional accents that indicated you were speaking to your neighbour started to disappear in favour of a more national dialect. This is an illustration. When I was a teenager, my friends would send me text messages with the greeting “Waswera sei” No one from the neighbourhood does that anymore, but I still do since it really stuck with me. What is the overall impact of this, then? Simple. We are beginning to act and speak in a similar way. It’s comparable to how accents have been disappearing across the country since the invention of television. The internet has only accelerated events.
