Can someone please explain the

Can someone please explain the distinction between chat mode and query mode to me?

However, comparing the outcomes of these two modes reveals differences. Notably, it seems to incorporate a significant amount of out-of-context information, likely sourced from OpenAI's knowledge base, leading to longer responses.
