ChatGPT launches its search engine and makes the Google search engine tremble

After 20 years without rivals, Google’s search engine for the first time has reason to worry, thanks to artificial intelligence. OpenAI has just launched its search engine with ChatGPT.

More precisely, ChatGPT has integrated an Internet search engine within your chat. An icon in the shape of a world ball allows you to use it.

It is something that Gemini and Copilot already have, but the fact that ChatGPT includes it is relevant, because it is an enemy feared by Google. A new era begins for search engines with AIwho want to replace the classic search engines. Another thing is that they get it…

This is how the ChatGPT search engine works

From now on, ChatGPT itself can use the search engine if the user’s query requires it. Also the user himself can directly do a search.

As Gemini does within the Google search engine, it does not offer a list of results, but rather an organized summary of the information you find. Mark significant links, showing where you got the information from.

If there are many different sources, organize them in a column, on the right side, as you can see in the opening photo of the news.

The problem with using an AI as a search engine is that It is usually trained with data that is already months oldso it’s not very useful for finding current information. OpenAI has solved it by “reaching agreements with news providers” to access updated weather data, stock market information, sports, the stock market, etc.

According to OpenAI, the ChatGPT search engine has been created with “different search technologies, including Bing.” But it doesn’t specify exactly what they are.

One of its advantages over the Google search engine is that does not contain advertisingand OpenAI has no intention of adding it. The unknown is knowing how it will then finance the searches of free users. Only has said that The free version can be used a limited number of times per day.

ChatGPT search engine is now available on the chatgpt.com website, and in the desktop and mobile apps. It can now be used by ChatGPT Plus and Team users, as well as users on the SearchGPT waitlist. Enterprise and Edu customers will have access in the coming weeks. It will still take a few months to reach all free users.

For the first time in two decades, Google’s search engine is facing serious competition. We will see if the ChatGPT search engine really is a solid alternativeor flower of a day…
