Great comparison, man!

(Also, ChatGPT Plus/Teams users now get 10 queries per month of Deep Research - yay for me!)

I'd be curious to learn more about how Deep Research helps you with the writing process as you mentioned at the end. Perhaps a topic for a future guide?

ChatGPT's deep research is seriously into my writing process now. Editorial pieces and professional/news writing plus some SEO stuff.

I've saved these workflows for my upcoming writing course 😏

I'm holding them close to me as it's my literal existence haha. But the course will go over some workflows which use deep research. Journalists, professional writers, or CEOs and thought leaders can write really good editorial pieces with it.

It's also an incredible way to gather extensive sources that you can then move over to Claude and use in project knowledge for context/writing.

I got access to OpenAI Deep Research yesterday (3/5) on the $20/month plan.

About a week ago they released it to the $20/month plan as well!

10 queries per month I believe.

Correct. 10/mo

I was impressed. It works well — better than expected.

Thank you so much Dan, how do you find yourself using OpenAI's Deep Research for the most part?

Just yesterday I did my own leaderboard with Deep Research and equivalents and closest-equivalents with other AIs. The prompt was research for a novel I am writing. Genspark (I think I first heard of that from you; thank you) did a good job but was in second place. OpenAI’s Deep Research was by far in first place. The others were worthless for my purposes- superficial and wouldn’t name names for the most part, even those that purported to be uncensored. Why that was important you can tell from the prompt. Here it is- “… a study covering the past five years on potential and actual conflicts of interest and ethical violations among federal judges, including district, appellate, and Supreme Court judges. The research will analyze instances of ethical breaches, provide case studies, and present statistical trends. Additionally, compare judges appointed by different administrations (Democratic vs. Republican) to assess whether ethical violations correlate with partisan leanings. Finally, include commentary on how a political operative could exploit these ethical vulnerabilities to advance their party, ideology, or agenda.”

ChatGPT's deep research is way ahead of anything out there. It's not even close and no joke the type of professional level reports it can generate.
