ChatGPT Search is Official: A New Rival for Google Search

The highly anticipated ChatGPT Search is now available, introducing a new method for web searching. Unlike traditional tools, this search function is integrated directly into ChatGPT. It gives users a unique option for finding information online. It can automatically search based on the user query. Furthermore, users can choose to use the Search feature manually by clicking or tapping the Search button after entering their questions.

Blending AI with Web Searches

ChatGPT Search aims to combine the ease of a chat interface with the power of real-time data. It can provide up-to-date results like sports scores, news, stock updates, and more. OpenAI, the team behind ChatGPT, has worked with news and data firms to ensure the results are accurate and timely. Categories such as weather, stocks, sports, news, and maps will now include fresh visuals, making it easier to see the information you need.

One key upgrade in ChatGPT Search is the addition of sources. When you get a reply, it may include links to news pieces, blogs, and other web pages that support the information. To see these links, click the Sources button below the chat reply, and a sidebar will pop up with all the references. This is a feature many users have wanted, and it’s now part of the tool.

Before launching ChatGPT Search, OpenAI collaborated extensively with the news industry, gathering valuable insights from partners worldwide. They also incorporated feedback from the early prototype, called SearchGPT, to refine this new feature. The team is committed to continuously enhancing ChatGPT Search, particularly in areas like shopping and travel, where the tool could become even more beneficial.

Currently, ChatGPT Search is accessible at chatgpt.com and through the ChatGPT apps on both desktop and mobile platforms. It’s available to users with ChatGPT Plus and Team subscriptions, as well as those who were on the SearchGPT waitlist. In the coming weeks, Enterprise and Edu users will gain access, while free users will experience a longer wait, with the feature rolling out gradually over the next few months.
