If you want to know which AI is better for certain cases, then we show you the key differences to know which one we should use in each case.
Updated information
The data with which ChatGPT was trained is limited to the year 2021. That is to say, that any information that we look for after that date, ChatGPT will not be able to respond correctly, being able to invent the data to offer a correct answer. However, Bing Chat has an internet connection, so all the information it shows is always up to date, which allows us to ask for any current data, such as the result of yesterday’s game, the weather forecast for next week, what are the next movie releases and so on.
GPT version
Both ChatGPT and Bing Chat use the GPT training model, a natural language processing system that responds to prompts in a similar way to a human, so we can have seamless conversations. However, ChatGPT uses version 3.5 of GPT whereas the solution of Microsoft uses version 4 of GPT. GPT-4 is much more complete and efficient when it comes to generating texts naturally.
After the last update of ChatGPT, it has gone to use GPT-4, however, this model is only available for paying usersa problem that we are not going to find with Bing Chat, who uses GPT-4 since its launch and there is no paywall that limits its use.
solve operations
If we want to use an AI to solve mathematical problems, the free solution of ChatGPT, the one managed by GPT-3.5 will offer results less accurate than Bing Chat with GPT-4, since this latest version is much more complete and is capable of processing much more data and better understanding what we are asking.
conversation styles
ChatGPT only has one way to answer questions, while Bing Chat has up to 3 options: Creative, Balanced, Accurate. This is because this platform is based on GPT-4, while the free version of ChatGPT stays at GPT-3.5.
Security
Both platforms include security measures that, if they suspect that we want to do something illegal, they quickly stop working and invite us to start a new conversion all over again. With the launch of ChatGPT, many were the friends of the alien who began to use this platform to generate malicious code to develop malware and spam emails.
Accessibility
ChatGPT only works via web browser and at the moment it is not available through mobile applications. Bing Chat works seamlessly through Microsoft Edge on mobile devices, however it only works through this browser on these devices, which can be a problem if it’s not our usual browser.
Price
As discussed above, the GPT-4 based version of ChatGPT is available under a paywall priced at 20 dollars a month. However, Bing Conversations chat, also based on GPT-4 is completely free.
