Google Scholar Labs are the fastest and rather good, i.e. gives meaningful and diverse explanations. ScopusAI picked a very non-standard explanation and presented it in different ways in its long answer \u2013 a highly doubtful result. ChatGPT deepsearch takes too long!!! In 8 minutes it generated a report which is surprisingly deep and correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"585\" height=\"425\" src=\"https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1220\" srcset=\"https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-1.png 585w, https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-1-300x218.png 300w, https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-1-220x160.png 220w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"102\" src=\"https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-2-1024x102.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-2-1024x102.png 1024w, https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-2-300x30.png 300w, https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-2-768x77.png 768w, https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-2-1536x154.png 1536w, https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-2-220x22.png 220w, https:\/\/doublelayer.eu\/vilab\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-2.png 1580w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I am repeating the text with ScopusAI, ChatGPT deepsearch, and Google Scholar Labs at least twice a year. ScopusAI consistently gives results that differ from my expert (biassed) knowledge, so I would not trust it and, thus, do not recommend it to my colleagues. Google Scholar Labs is a cool tool to pre-select sources. ChatGPT deepsearch is at least progressing \u2013 it is the first time it gives a meaningful overview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, the experiment with Codex feels different. Here it helps me to summarize already pre-selected sources. And it allows me to check them in one click. Which makes this approach at least promising.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For me codex is a form of LLM that can read and edit my files.
