OK I'm not bearish. I'm very bullish. I use it all the time, in place of Stackoverflow type questions.
BUT
I think people are too bearish on boring-old search as a tool. It's so easy to jam a search into Chrome's bar and look for a quick reference or (hopefully) a human being that has had some experience with what you're working on.
I use search / ChatGPT / CoPilot interchangeably for different reasons... ChatGPT for a detailed, thoughtful answer. CoPilot as autocomplete on steroids. Search for reference, quick answers, and direct human experience.
