When I showed these retro hairstyles to ChatGPT and Claude, their responses showed how different they are. It proved what I’ve seen while working with them for quite some time.
I was inspired by a journalist who let AI make all her decisions for a week, even her haircut! (Check out the article in comments)
I wanted to test what I thought about these two AIs in a fun way. No, I’m not really thinking about these 70s styles 😄, but I knew their answers would show how they think differently.
I asked both to pick a hairstyle. ChatGPT jumped right in with specific advice and style details. But Claude politely said no and suggested I talk to a real stylist!
I then showed each AI what the other said and asked them to explain the differences. You can see their responses in the carousel below.
This matches how I use them at work:
I turn to Claude as a thought partner, especially for strategy where we need to align and bring different people together. It’s more careful and thoughtful, great for people-focused work.
I use ChatGPT when I need quick, clear answers. It’s fast and direct – perfect for information gathering, data analysis, and straightforward tasks.
Often, like in this test, I find it helpful to use both. This helps catch any mistakes, gives me more ideas, and leads to better answers.
It’s not about which one is better. It’s about picking the right tool for the job.
They’re simply trained differently. One prioritizes direct engagement, the other professional boundaries.
What’s your experience? Have you noticed these AI “personality differences”? How do you pick which one to use for different tasks?
