The gauntlet has been thrown as ChatGPT Search offers a fine-tuned and more conversational experience.
ChatGPT Search is the next challenger in the search engine arena. Like others, it takes on queries and provides answers and links to relevant web sources.
But how does it work? When you ask, ChatGPT Search will choose to search the web based on your question. You can also choose to manually search by clicking on the Search icon.
Unlike a typical search engine, ChatGPT Search features these unique capabilities:
- Natural and conversational: Instead of drowning you with information, it takes into consideration the depth of your query. When you follow-up, it goes deeper to provide better answers.
- Useful categories: Partnerships with news and data providers ensure latest information about topics like weather, stocks, and sports. Visual designs are added as well.
- Head to the source: A sidebar is provided so you can inspect where it found its answers. You can click those sources too.
- Chat interface: Asking questions and receiving answers are contained in a chat-like interface to encourage a more conversational experience, all the while connecting publishers and websites to audiences worldwide.
ChatGPT Search is an improved version of GPT-4o.
You can give it a try now at ChatGPT’s official website. It’s also available on ChatGPT desktop and mobile apps, for all ChatGPT Plus and Team users and SearchGPT waitlist users, and even via a Chrome Extension.
