SearchGPT: ChatGPT’s new search function

Artificial intelligence can now also be used for current search queries. With the SearchGPT function, OpenAI is now in direct competition with search engine giants such as Google, Bing and others. What was previously only available in the paid Pro version is now also available to users of the free version.

Up-to-date data and answers

With SearchGPT, ChatGPT can access the internet in real time and thus provide up-to-date and reliable information. Until now, the chatbots’ knowledge was limited to the year 2021 and was not very reliable for current information and research. The clear weakness that chatbots had compared to search engines should now be resolved.

How does SearchGPT work?

This extension is possible through a direct integration of web searches. OpenAI is further expanding the sources to which SearchGPT refers by working with other publishers. As with conventional search engines, users can enter their concerns and questions in the field of SearchGPT and receive a detailed answer from reliable sources.

Possible uses of SearchGPT

The new feature allows for immediate research of trends, keywords and current developments. This is particularly advantageous in dynamic subject areas such as SEO, marketing and content creation, as content can be optimised on a daily basis.

Customised results and quick summaries

SearchGPT itself advertises the new feature with the promise of better understanding search queries and better adapting results to user needs. With the help of data such as search history, location and other background data, the chatbot knows how to provide optimised and personalised answers. At the same time, SearchGPT is able to summarise long and complex articles and provide the reader with the most important content at a glance. The aim is to offer users the best user experience and to make working with search engines as easy as possible.
