Tech rivalry just leveled up! OpenAI – the minds behind ChatGPT – is testing a new search tool called SearchGPT, designed to challenge Google's dominance. Think of it as AI meets Wikipedia meets your favorite chatbot 🚀
The prototype promises to answer queries conversationally (no more endless link-clicking!) while citing web sources. Need to ask follow-up questions? SearchGPT handles them like a human assistant. OpenAI says features from this test phase will eventually upgrade ChatGPT itself.
This comes days after Google rolled out AI-generated \"Overviews\" – text summaries atop search results – sparking debates about ad revenue and the future of web discovery. SearchGPT vs. Google Overviews? It’s the AI showdown we didn’t see coming 💥
OpenAI’s partnering with publishers like The Atlantic to refine the tool. \"AI search must value journalism,\" said CEO Nicholas Thompson. Early testers can join a waitlist, but no public launch date yet.
As Sundar Pichai of Google/Alphabet vows to \"innovate at every layer\" of AI, one thing’s clear: The race to redefine how we surf the web is officially on. Buckle up, internet travelers 🛸
