OpenAI Launches AI-Powered SearchGPT Prototype to Challenge Google

Jul 25, 2024, 06:19 PM

OpenAI has announced the launch of SearchGPT, an AI-powered search engine designed to challenge Google's dominance in the search market. SearchGPT aims to provide users with fast and timely answers, accompanied by clear and relevant sources, with real-time access to information. Initially, the prototype will be available to a small group of 10,000 test users and will eventually be integrated into ChatGPT. The launch has already impacted Alphabet's stock, causing a notable drop. Backed by Microsoft, SearchGPT will feature a combination of AI-generated responses and traditional clickable links, setting it apart from conventional search engines. OpenAI is taking sign-ups for a waitlist. This move, reported by the Financial Times, signifies a significant step in the ongoing AI arms race, with OpenAI positioning itself as a formidable competitor in the search engine landscape.
