ChatGPT launching search to challenge Google

OpenAI is adding a new set of search features to its flagship product ChatGPT, escalating the artificial intelligence startup’s challenge to Google.

The option, called ChatGPT Search, will let the chatbot’s users search for timely information much as they would on the web and get responses with in-line attribution to news publishers and other data sources, OpenAI said Thursday.
 
As long at their primary business isn't selling personal data like Google is, then it should do well.
 
I started using copilot for search. I had to correct a few times about the weekend games but for most other things it’s been ok
 
Overall winner: ChatGPT Search
Both ChatGPT and Google excel in different areas, but they cater to slightly different needs. If you’re looking for comprehensive search results with a vast array of sources and visuals, Google is still the powerhouse. However, if your priority is clear, ad-free, conversational responses with built-in real-time updates, ChatGPT offers a streamlined, user-friendly experience that could easily become a staple for everyday queries.

The clutter-free answers from ChatGPT Search with sources to back them up are thorough and reliable. I feel more confident in the ChatGPT answers because they are so concise and without advertisers backing them. The results feel as though the results are just for me. In a cluttered web, ChatGPT feels like a helpful friend, and I like that.

 
So many options now.
I've been using Perplexity for a while, and now with SearchGPT, I can pretty much all but drop the piece of turd, that Google Search has become.
