San Francisco, CA – On Thursday, OpenAI introduced SearchGPT, a new search engine designed to challenge Google’s dominance in the search market.
SearchGPT uses OpenAI’s advanced AI technology to provide fast and accurate answers to user questions by pulling information from the web. It is currently being tested by a small group of users and publishers to collect feedback.
The new search engine will let users ask questions in a conversational way and get detailed answers, similar to talking to a person. This comes as Google has started using AI to generate summary answers at the top of search results, which has raised concerns about fewer ads.
OpenAI’s SearchGPT aims to offer a similar service but focuses on interacting with users and supporting news publishers. The company plans to integrate improvements from SearchGPT into ChatGPT in the future.
Users interested in trying SearchGPT can sign up on a waitlist as OpenAI continues to develop the tool.
