OpenAI Tests New AI-Powered Search Engine
Open AI launched a new prototype of an AI-powered search engine called SearchGPT. The company made an official announcement yesterday and invited people to join the test period they have started to get feedback.
“We’re testing SearchGPT, a prototype of new search features designed to combine the strength of our AI models with information from the web to give you fast and timely answers with clear and relevant sources,” the company stated in the document. “While this prototype is temporary, we plan to integrate the best of these features directly into ChatGPT in the future. If you’re interested in trying the prototype, sign up for the waitlist.”
The AI-powered search engine will provide users with conversational results and real-time information. As an example, OpenAI showed through videos how SearchGPT will show users results when being asked about music festivals in the city of Boone in North Carolina this year and the new search engine provided a list with images and a short description of upcoming events in August including links to websites with more information.
SearchGPT will also answer follow-up questions, and OpenAI assures an experience “like you would in a conversation with a person.” OpenAI showed different scenarios of how the engine works on its website and social media.

OpenAI also highlighted the collaborations with other publications to feature relevant content. “AI search is going to become one of the key ways that people navigate the internet, and it’s crucial, in these early days, that the technology is built in a way that values, respects, and protects journalism and publishers,” said Nicholas Thompson, CEO of The Atlantic, one of OpenAI’s partners.
This year, OpenAI has announced partnerships with American mass media News Corp, TIME, and other organizations. And just a few days ago, Reuters reported that OpenAI is secretly working on an advanced reasoning technology called Strawberry.
OpenAI has been making significant updates and launching new products, staying ahead of the AI race.
