Bing, since its release, was never taken seriously, I feel, at least not when compared to Google. Now with ChatGPT implemented and the potential to further integrate OpenAI into the Bing-sphere, do you think it has a serious chance to challenge Google?
It all boils down to whether they can make money out of it or not. Running ChatGPT is not cheap. Google currently makes $26 per user per year. Sure economies of scale will help, but running such a vast LLM and scaling it to millions of users is going to be hard without a good financial model around it. So the bigger question is, how does Bing monetise ChatGPT queries.
The other discussion point is that they are different use cases. I use ChatGPT to answer questions - which makes things like Siri and Alexa seem really stone age and useless. I use Google to find websites and products.

With the new addition, I think they might get there
Hmm, interesting question. Bing has been playing catch-up to Google for years and even with OpenAI's integration, it still seems like a tough road ahead. Google has been the dominant player in the search engine market for a long time and has become a household name. It will be difficult for Bing to displace Google's market share, but anything is possible in the world of technology.

Despite their money, I don't think this will happen in the near future.
