The new features of ChatGPT allow Plus and Team subscribers to use the chatbot as a search engine.
In its blog, OpenAI announced that the new feature will enable users to search for "relevant" information. The responses generated by ChatGPT will include links to "relevant web sources." These links can be accessed by clicking the "Sources" button below the auto-generated answers, which will open a sidebar with corresponding web pages. A prototype of the search features called SearchGPT became available in July.
"ChatGPT can now search the internet much better than before. You can receive quick, up-to-date answers with links to relevant web sources, which previously required a search engine," the company stated in its blog.
OpenAI also announced a partnership with "news and data providers" to deliver users "current information and new visual designs for categories such as weather, stock markets, sports, news, and maps." Partner organizations mentioned by OpenAI include Associated Press, Axel Springer, Condé Nast, Dotdash Meredith, Financial Times, GEDI, Hearst, Le Monde, News Corp, Prisa (El País), Reuters, The Atlantic, Time, and Vox Media.
Additionally, OpenAI has started testing a standalone ChatGPT application for Windows, although it is currently available only to paid subscribers of the service.
