Without sharing much details about the specific problem its going to be difficult to give proper feedback/advice.

Some questions you can ask yourself:

- Can a human solve the problem? How skilled does the human have to be?

- Do you think you will need fancy architectures to train a model or is assembling the data the hard part and modelling will be easy? How easy? Basically the question is is assembling the data the risk or is modelling the risk?

- Have others tried? Why are you so convinced that you can make money solving the problem? If you are so convinced, then why have others not tried?

I like to tell people Gpt is more like writing an essay for English class or the sat than a research paper for a history class. It cares about grammatical correctness, readability is a better way to put that, that’s how you’re graded in English. It’s not graded on accuracy or truth. For the sat they used to say you can make up quotes for the essay section because they’re grading the writing, not the content. (I realize that’s dated, I don’t think they do an essay anymore)

Well obviously. Search is a tool for information retrieval (mostly). If you have an oracle, it's much more convenient than digging through the source material and doing the research yourself, even when it is presented to you in most relevant first order, which is the most convenient order and what made google successful in the first place.

But yes, anyone reading please don't use ChatGPT instead of google search unless you don't care about the responses being made up.
