IT Home reported on July 26 that OpenAI published a blog post yesterday (July 25), inviting some users to test the AI ​​search engine SearchGPT.It is planned to be connected to the ChatGPT service in the future.


Related Introduction

SearchGPT is currently only open to a small number of users. IT Home currently visits its page and displays a "Join the waiting list" option. The official introduction is: "A new search function prototype that leverages the strengths of our artificial intelligence model to provide you with clear, relevant and quick answers."


According to the details shared in an official OpenAI blog post, the SearchGPT search engine will start with a large text box asking the user, “What are you looking for?”


Users can search for content using natural language and a chatty tone, and SearchGPT does not return a simple list of links, but instead attempts to organize and understand the search results.


SearchGPT will answer your questions quickly and directly, providing the latest information from the web while providing you with clear links to relevant sources.

In one example provided by OpenAI, the search engine summarizes its findings about music festivals and then gives a short description of the event, followed by an attribution link.


In another example, it explains when to plant tomatoes before breaking down the different varieties of tomatoes. Once the results appear, you can ask follow-up questions or click on the sidebar to open other related links.


Users can ask follow-up questions in a chat format, and each inquiry can be answered based on the context.

There is also a feature called "visual answers", but OpenAI has not released details. It should include calling Sora to generate relevant videos.


Still in the "prototype" stage

In an interview with technology media The Verge, OpenAI spokesperson Kayla Wood said that the SearchGPT search engine is based on the GPT-4 series of AI models and is currently in the "prototype" stage.The initial plan is to invite only 10,000 users for testing

Wood said OpenAI is working with third-party partners and using direct content feeds to build search results, with the goal of eventually integrating search functionality directly into ChatGPT.
