Bot GPT 3.5 The main difference between "will" and "going to" is the level of certainty about a future event.
"Will" is typically used when making a decision or prediction about the future, without any specific plans or intentions already in place. It is often used when something is spontaneous or unplanned.
For example:
- I will buy a new car next year. (Decision/prediction)
- I will help you with your homework. (Offer or promise)
On the other hand, "going to" is used when there is already a plan or intention in place to do something in the future. It suggests a higher level of certainty that the event will occur.
For example:
- I am going to the beach next weekend. (Plan/intention)
- She is going to start a new job next month. (Future intention)
