New Delhi: OpenAI, the creators of ChatGPT, has released SearchGPT –an AI-powered search engine with real-time access to information across the internet.
“We’re testing SearchGPT, a temporary prototype of new AI search features that give you fast and timely answers with clear and relevant sources,” OpenAI said in a blogpost.
SearchGPT, the market is speculating is a probable competitor to, Google search engine, which will be available as a prototype in limited release. OpenAI is mulling to eventually integrate it into ChatGPT.
“We’re testing SearchGPT, a prototype of new search features designed to combine the strength of our AI models with information from the web to give you fast and timely answers with clear and relevant sources. We’re launching to a small group of users and publishers to get feedback. While this prototype is temporary, we plan to integrate the best of these features directly into ChatGPT in the future. If you’re interested in trying the prototype, sign up(opens in a new window) for the waitlist,” said OpenAI.
OpenAI says SearchGPT ‘will quickly and directly respond to your questions with up-to-date information from the web while giving you clear links to relevant sources’. The user will also be able to ask follow-up questions, like you would in a conversation with a person, with the shared context building with each query, it added.
“We’ve partnered with publishers to build this experience and continue to seek their feedback. In addition to launching the SearchGPT prototype, we are also launching a way for publishers to manage how they appear in SearchGPT, so publishers have more choices. Importantly, SearchGPT is about search and is separate from training OpenAI’s generative AI foundation models. Sites can be surfaced in search results even if they opt out of generative AI training,” added OpenAI.
