OpenAI introduces ChatGPT Search; Changing the game for search ...
OpenAI has recently launched ChatGPT Search as a new feature within ChatGPT, revolutionizing AI-driven internet searches. This enhancement allows ChatGPT to perform web searches more efficiently than before, providing users with relevant links to online resources similar to traditional search engines.
ChatGPT Search utilizes the ChatGPT-4o model and is currently available on the ChatGPT website, as well as on the desktop and mobile applications for ChatGPT Plus and ChatGPT Teams subscribers. Users who have been on the SearchGPT waitlist will have immediate access, with OpenAI planning to expand this feature to enterprise and educational users in the coming weeks. Over time, all free users will also have access to ChatGPT Search.
Enhanced Search Capabilities
Users can engage in searches by asking questions or by clicking on the web search icon within the ChatGPT interface. With ChatGPT Search, users can interact conversationally, receiving web information and exploring further through follow-up queries. The system maintains context, facilitating a comprehensive dialogue that leads to personalized responses.
OpenAI has partnered with various news and data providers to deliver real-time information in categories such as weather, stock market updates, sports, news, and maps. Searches performed through ChatGPT will include source links, such as news articles and blog posts, for additional insights. A sources button below the response will display a sidebar with all the referenced materials.
OpenAI has collaborated with several media organizations, including Axel Springer, Condé Nast, Dotdash Meredith, Financial Times, GEDI, Hearst, Le Monde, News Corp, Prisa (El País), Reuters, The Atlantic, Time, and Vox Media. Publishers and websites have the opportunity to participate in ChatGPT search results.
Innovative Features
Earlier this year, OpenAI introduced SearchGPT, a prototype AI search engine that underwent testing with a limited user group before integrating search capabilities into ChatGPT.
Stay tuned for more updates on the groundbreaking ChatGPT Search feature and how it is reshaping the landscape of AI-driven internet searches.
