OpenAI rolled out ChatGPT Search a few weeks ago to some of its paid customers. More users are set to get the feature in the near future. You can even set ChatGPT Search as your default search engine on Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge with the help of a clever extension. Also, I found that the regular ChatGPT experience has improved significantly after the introduction of Search. OpenAI now displays sources for the chatbot’s claims more prominently than before.
Not everything is flawless, as we’re in the early days of ChatGPT Search. For example, OpenAI keeps (mistakenly?) turning on ChatGPT Search for ChatGPT Free users before disabling it over and over. That goes to show that a lot of work is still needed to turn ChatGPT Search into a true Google Search rival.
I wouldn’t be surprised if OpenAI launched its AI internet browser with ChatGPT at the core, as a recent rumor claims. That’s one way to make its ChatGPT Search even more popular with existing ChatGPT users. After all, Chrome only exists because Google needed a better home for Google Search.
A ChatGPT browser could be just what OpenAI needs to compete against Google Search. But given the particular time we’re in, a product like that might actually help Google defend Chrome against a possible divestiture.
