OpenAI has finally announced its AI-powered search engine called SearchGPT. OpenAI says that SearchGPT is a prototype and is available to only a small group of users and publishers.
On the official website, the company says that SearchGPT is the ‘temporary prototype’ of new AI search features to provide users with fast and timely answers. Later, the company will integrate it directly into ChatGPT.
The company plans to test the search engine with 10,000 initial users. Users can join the waitlist if they want to try SearchGPT.
Unlike traditional search engines like Google, SearchGPT aims to provide direct and comprehensive answers to queries by understanding the intent of the query. SearchGPT also allows users to ask follow-up questions to get more specific information.
With SearchGPT, OpenAI wants to reduce the efforts it needs to get relevant results in other search engines. SearchGPT will also show the name of the website clearly along with a link to the article to let users know the source of information. The company will also provide publishers with a way to manage how their website appears in SearchGPT.
It could be the start of a threat to Google. Although Google is also trying hard to be relevant in the AI game, but OpenAI is still ahead. It has launched the search engine as a prototype to avoid any criticism if SearchGPT provides the wrong result. SearchGPT can become a challenge to Google’s dominance, but its success will depend on its ability to deliver consistently accurate and informative results.
