ChatGPT Search is officially here to challenge Google’s throne

After being announced earlier this year as “SearchGPT,” OpenAI has today officially launched ChatGPT Search, a new AI-powered search engine.

Available starting today, ChatGPT Search provides answers to your search queries with links to web sources, images, and more, all provided with natural language in both directions.

OpenAI explains:

ChatGPT can now search the web in a much better way than before. You can get fast, timely answers with links to relevant web sources, which you would have previously needed to go to a search engine for. This blends the benefits of a natural language interface with the value of up-to-date sports scores, news, stock quotes, and more.

When you search, ChatGPT will show a list of citations along the right side of the UI, as well as directly showing web links that show where the information has come from.

ChatGPT Search will be available first to users who had signed up for the “SearchGPT” waitlist starting today, with Plus and Team users also getting access today. The feature will expand to Enterprise and Edu subscribers in the “next few weeks,” with broader access to all free users arriving “over the coming months.” The feature will be available through ChatGPT on the web, as well as through the mobile and desktop apps.

Alongside general answers and web links, ChatGPT will also be able to surface weather (powered by AccuWeather), stocks, sports scores, news, and maps. News content, ChatGPT says, comes following the company has “collaborated extensively with the news industry and carefully listened to feedback.”
