OpenAI makes search a default feature of Its language model
December 17, 2024
OpenAI has made ChatGPT Search available to all users, including those on the free version of the language model. The tool is accessible in the web version, as well as in mobile and desktop apps.
Next week, a voice search feature will be launched for users who prefer voice commands.
Default search and new features
ChatGPT Search can be set as the default search engine in your browser. This means every query in the browser’s search bar will utilize OpenAI’s intelligent system.
Additionally, the mobile version of ChatGPT has gained new features. The app now includes maps to help users find local restaurants, shops, and other establishments using up-to-date information.
Smart contextual search
ChatGPT Search provides accurate answers with links to verified sources, eliminating the need to browse through numerous pages. It also retains the chat’s context for continuing discussions on the topic.
To offer users the most up-to-date information, OpenAI has partnered with providers of data on stock markets, sports, weather, and other current topics. Now, answers in ChatGPT Search always reflect the latest events.
