Video Overview & Insights
How do you know if Claude or ChatGPT is the right AI for you?
If this is something that’s been on your mind, this will help → https://markbrinker.com/start
In this video, I run both side by side on five real-world tasks so you can see where each one actually wins — and where it falls short.
You’ll see them tested on:
So far i have only used chat gpt.
• Rewriting a messy email
• Cleaning up data
And what about the web scraping ? There are a huge differences between how different AI can or can not open a web pages, and get or not get a content from them!
• Matching tone in writing
• Understanding images
At this point parting with my chat GPT assistant will be like loosing a family member I can’t do it lol
• Summarizing long documents
This isn’t hype or marketing copy. It’s a plain-English breakdown showing the strengths and weaknesses of each platform so you don’t waste time guessing.
The idea is worth sharing It made my day better.
By the end, you’ll know exactly when to reach for Claude, when ChatGPT is the better option, and how to avoid choosing the wrong tool for the job.

More User Perspectives
Claude is not for common people who just want to chat and solve common daily problems. Their AI cannot watch videos. So if you don't understand a youtube video, Claude cannot help you. Claude also monitor usage, and if you use too many images, it will charge you extra. There are more limits. It may be better for people who needs higher function like code, and skills, etc. But not so for common people with daily activities.
@asyouwish134Great, a practical demo...
@theplinkerslodge6361Which one is better for assignments?
@MuhammadZuham-c6sClaude all day everyday, also Claude remembers from different conversations into existing ones
@Yelladog78I LOVE CLAUDE ❤
@nila.conzenI didn't find a free version of Claude. Do you offer a link for free Claude?
@HiddenPatternsCEOWow i tought it would be instresting but the question we all wanted is chatgpt is betther for Coding ? tryed both Claude is bether for coding and not hallucinating document that he invented never happen with Claude happened with Gpt5.2 he halucinated files and created them deleting file by accident and so on both are good build agent Chatgpt with agency swarm not bad but again agen Claude easier to built and Opus 4.6 tinking is realy Hard to beat for plan building prompt for your agent . My verdict Job Apps like in the Video true Gpt if your Coding anyting Claude all the way
@johnseraiocco1895Claude: writes email
ChatGPT: “we’re not just writing an email, we’re optimizing your administrative operations!”
I catch chatgpt giving wrong and contradictory info many times, then it's like, oops, thanks for catching that.
@321okaygo8As of 3/9/26 has your opinion changed on the two?
@SeraProblemeMaybe its just me but... claude seems 100% better now
@DorfVGthank you for sharing the video
@henrythai6375It would be great to see something that is not overly politically correct.
@daotalk_officialI’m a data analyst at a big tech company. I use both but Claude is so much better at deeper analysis and longer conversation. GPT is a Swiss Army Knife like youve mentioned, it can do so many things even for a free plan. So I use it to edit my photos, search (instead of google), ask general questions etc
@serelbass7283I think this speaker is AI. The mouth does not match the words and in fact, the voice sounds abnormal.
@jenny_avocadoClaude is good for coding. ChatGPT is like a Swiss Army knife. I use both as well as copilot to cross check coding
@alunevans2377Great breakdown, It’s interesting to see Claude winning on natural writing and depth, while ChatGPT still holds the edge as the faster Swiss Army knife for data and structured tasks
@SiddharthVadera-i9oClaude stopped working for me. It only works 20% of the time and i have a paid subscription.
@eyetryaiI make no headway with chatgpt. Claude is amazing. He goes deep into spirituality, mysticism, sacred geometry, God, spirit. It is like talking to a spiritual guru but one very knowledgeable, at the same time, very polite, and empathic.
@trudihsuChatGPT explained to me that of all of my irritations with it, Claude would probably work better for me, and it was right. Dunn-dun-daaahhnnn!!!
@jotter89ChatGPT is a little irritating with how much it recalls and references other stuff when I haven’t asked it to.
@jotter89Claude hold info way better its way better at coding its even better then the custom gpt the CHATGPT WILL NOT STOP Hallucinating all its owner are Hallucinating
@samsmigh2281ChatGPT is a supportive friend, we all need that :)
@lendingbushwell i use both of them almost daily. Chatgpt mostly i use in place of google, like asking some problems with installing programms, computer specs, new phone reviews which ones is better choose, fact check, building material specs where to find one, asking about some youtube video info, or hey here it says so is it true ,who wrote this article and things like this. Also translation, chatgpt is much much better. But it can give you a false info and gaslight you. Chatgpt is good at structure, bulletpoints even if u don't want them. Claude i mostly use for my university. It's clearly much better at writing like a human. Chatgpt can write better when propt is write less like an AI ,less bulletpoints or write like Claude but i just give that task to Claude directly. Claude is also much much better when you are just conversing ,gossiping, or brainstorming. Or talking about books,movies plot. It undertands some tropes better and gives it's own opinion and will mention how others see it, why yours might be different etc. It can also come up with surprisingly interesting plot ideas. Chatgpt tends to create the most typical plot ever.
@effingcool1780I have used both and there are aspects of them each. I do a lot of autodydactic work which claude helps me create a learning path to improve my education. I have also used Claude to work in installation issues i have when running linux. Claude is indeed easier to talk to. Over all i love them both, but for now i pay the $17 to improve my context window.
@toddklein-m6hclaude has a good reputation for writing programming code. If you are not an engineer chatGPT is for sure better.
@billtheman7546ChatGPT is a full on yes-man and Claude is way more grounded and not delusional
I proposed to ChatGPT a really stupid housing policy to fix rental prices. It said "It's quite complicated and ambicious what you proposed, but if done right, it could go quite well, but with several nuances!"
I proposed the same thing to Claude and it said something along "No, that's fucking stupid and inmoral, you commie"
No matter what AI you use you must be very specific in whatever you say and especially ask the AI to do and what not to do. AI is like a child. Before 2030 AI will be much more "mature."
@AIAlwaysImagineChatGPT does not know how to say, "I don't know" and will gasslight you and waste hours of your time pretending it knows what its doing, when in the end you figure out it has been guessing the entire time. Claude respect your time by saying "I don't know"
@HistoryismytismI recently tried chatgpt pro free month subscritpion, and I did start a project I had in mind. It was a storyboard made of generated images for a project I had, it was wonderful seeing my idea come to life, but my idea involved explosions and mayhem, at first chat gpt had no problem, we generated almost 3/4 of the whole story in four days, making explosions and destruction left and right, and suddenly before the final epic scene chat gpt stopped cooperating, saying cannot generate images with explosions and destruction and even fire because of safety reasons. WTH happened?! And how to go back? he's now offering me alternatives to make magic energy explosions instead and use energy instead of fire... Like what? Why did he cooperate with me until now so flawlessly and all of a sudden he started with this "I can't do it anymore" attitude. But it then wen't even further with the safety restriction, first it refused to depict a moving car with a driver's fist raised out of the side window, then he refused to depict a driver in the car, then he refused to depict a moving car - because it was unsafe. At this point it was clear to me I will not finish my visual project with chat GPT refusing to collaborate like it did before without any complains and even being very entusiastic by our project...
Other than that went much further into experimentation with chat GPT, I estabilished protocols to engage whe nwanted and trigger words to skip all the unecessary delay that sometimes happen before genrating an image. For sometime the trigger worked flawlessly. I also "accused him" that he is a pathological liar because he was saying that he is commencing photo generations, but then he did not. And he learned from that getting better.
Sycophancy is lower in Claude (though Sonnet 4.5 seems to be toeing ChatGPT's line of pandering). Claude also seems to follow system prompts better. I've asked ChatGPT not to use emojis, ever, but that doesn't hold it back from popping a few every now and then.
Claude is amazing at creating calendar events, I'm waiting for ChatGPT to get there.
I'm a CGPT subscriber, and have been on the fence about claude for a long time - because of 1 reason. Claude seems to run into usage limits pretty quickly even for paid users! (reddit forums, etc)
If you could help drive clarity on the usage limits, CGPT might just lose one subscriber!
Re: Claude only remembering current chat. That's no longer the case, as it can now search past chats within the current chat. "Memory" slowly seems to be become a standard feature across all LLMs.
