The reason why when I’m often searching for information I trust ChatGPT more than Google is that Google is to beladen with “content marketing“, and too much bias.

My thought and approach to ChatGPT is it is more of a creative ideation tool; it gives you some sort of mental framework, and then you could go back to Google to cross reference whether the information is accurate or not.

For example, I googled “if I buy a Triplex in Los Angeles, can I kick out the tenants”? On Google all of the strange results pop up.

Whereas when I ask ChatGPT the same question, it helped me glean more interesting information like

“The rules regarding tenant eviction in Los Angeles can be complex and are subject to change. Generally, you can evict tenants for specific reasons allowed under California law, such as non-payment of rent, violation of lease terms, or if you intend to occupy the unit yourself or perform significant renovations. However, tenant rights and eviction laws are designed to protect renters, and you must follow legal procedures and provide proper notice.

It’s crucial to consult with a local attorney or research the current regulations and requirements in Los Angeles and California before attempting to evict tenants from a triplex property you purchase. Laws and regulations may have changed since my last update in September 2021.l

CHAT GPT RESPONSE

Information which seems to make sense is that I could kick out the tenant if I intend to occupy the unit myself, or perform significant renovations.

The problem with Google is there is too much scrolling, too much bloat, too much nonsense.
