You’d be surprised.

I consider myself extremely competent at getting niche results. Couldn’t for the life of me find a certain after market part for a home appliance.

I go ask Claude to find it and it comes back with exactly what I need. One of its queries hit a website with a poorly labeled product that it was able to figure out was exactly what I needed. That product was nested so deeply in results that I would have never found it on my own.



Similar experience. I searched all over for the install manual of my HVAC system (~25 years old at this point). Multiple days turned up nothing. Chatgpt gave me a link to a pdf that Im pretty sure was supposed to be private in about 30 seconds.
