GIF to JPG is nearly always a compatibility job. Some upload form, some printing service or some piece of software will take a JPG and nothing else, and the picture you have happens to be a GIF. It converts cleanly, with two side effects worth expecting.
JPG compression was designed for photographs, and most GIF images are not photographs. Flat colour and hard edges are exactly what it handles least well, so faint grey halos can appear around lettering and around the edges of solid shapes. On a GIF that started life as a photo, none of this shows.
JPG cannot store a clear pixel, so wherever the GIF was see through you get white instead. For an icon meant to sit on a coloured panel that is a real problem, and PNG is the better answer if the receiving system will take one.
When the form has already said no. Arguing with an upload validator is not a winnable fight, and a JPG gets accepted. If the image is a photograph the file will also come out considerably smaller than the GIF was, which is a useful side benefit.
Gets past strict forms
JPG is accepted where a GIF is refused for no obvious reason.
Photographic GIFs shrink
A GIF made from a photo usually comes out far lighter as a JPG.
Single frame output
The opening frame becomes the picture and the rest stays behind.

Those are JPG compression artefacts around hard edges. They are worst on sharp text and flat colour, which is what GIF is usually holding.
Completely. PNG keeps edges crisp and transparency intact. Convert to JPG only when something insists on it.
There is no such thing. JPG holds one still picture, so you get the first frame and nothing else.
For a photographic image, usually much smaller. For a small flat graphic the two can land close, or the JPG can even come out larger.
