OpenAI's much-anticipated SearchGPT, that was initially launched as a prototype in July, has become live to paid subscribers within the platform. The AI-backed search engine offers real-time data, including sports scores, stock quotes, weather updates, and more, as announced by the company.

Most of us have learned how to enter specific terms when searching for something on Google so that it can output the desired information. However, instead of entering a structured sentence with keywords into Google, you can enter a rambling sentence into ChatGPT Search and still get great results.

Artificial intelligence pioneer OpenAI launched its own ChatGPT search engine on Thursday, positioning itself as a challenger to search titan Google and a direct competitor to the Bing search engine from its strategic partner Microsoft.

ChatGPT is officially an AI-powered web search engine. The company is enabling real-time information in conversations for paid subscribers today (along with SearchGPT waitlist users), with free, enterprise, and education users gaining access in the coming weeks.

There's a new AI-backed search engine in town. But can it stand up to Google's decades-long hold on internet searches?

OpenAI has embedded a search engine in its popular ChatGPT chatbot, as tech companies compete to use artificial intelligence to improve search results.

Navigate to ChatGPT Search's announcement page and click on Download Chrome Extension to reach the official Chrome Web Store page. Click the Add to Chrome button at the top of the store page to begin installation. When the pop-up window appears, click Add extension. You'll see a confirmation message that ChatGPT Search has been added to Chrome.

ChatGPT just became a browser-based search engine with real-time links, maps, weather, sports, stocks and news.

SearchGPT was initially launched in July as a prototype, from which OpenAI planned to integrate the best features with ChatGPT later. OpenAI has collected that feedback and implemented it into its search experience, claiming it brought "the best of the SearchGPT experience" into the chatbot.

As a Halloween treat for ChatGPT users (and a trick for the likes of Google and Bing), OpenAI has turned its AI chatbot into an internet search engine. As the company explains in a blog post, ChatGPT is now better than ever at searching the web and capable of providing fast and timely answers to your questions with links to relevant sources.

OpenAI unveiled SearchGPT inside ChatGPT last week and I’ve made the switch completely from Google in a large part because it removes all the clutter of a modern Google result page.
