OpenAI has announced SearchGPT, an AI-powered search engine with real-time access to information across the internet.

Details

The search engine displays a “What are you looking for?” search bar and tries to organize and make sense of a user’s query.

Users can ask follow-up questions or click the sidebar to open other relevant links.

An example of SearchGPT query where the user searches for “music festivals in Boone, North Carolina” in August 2024. The model delivers real time information scraped from the web, including links to sources.

Digging Deeper

Currently, SearchGPT is a prototype powered by GPT-4 family of models and will only be accessible to 10,000 test users at launch.

What They’re Saying

“SearchGPT is designed to help users connect with publishers by prominently citing and linking to them in searches,” according to OpenAI’s blog post.

“Responses have clear, in-line, named attribution and links so users know where information is coming from and can quickly engage with even more results in a sidebar with source links.”
