How to Choose the Best AI Chatbots & Assistants

AI assistants are powered by large language models (LLMs) trained on vast amounts of text. You type or speak a request, the model predicts the most helpful response word by word, and modern assistants can also search the web, read files, analyse images and remember context across a conversation.
