OpenAI Develops Search Engine ChatGPT, Targeting Google's Dominance

As OpenAI prepares to launch a web search feature for ChatGPT, the AI firm intensifies competition with Google and other tech giants.

OpenAI is enhancing ChatGPT with a search capability that allows it to pull information from the web, complete with citations.
The new search feature aims to provide users with more dynamic and accurate information, potentially including visual aids like diagrams.
OpenAI's move into the search domain includes efforts to poach Google employees and compete with startups like Perplexity.
Speculation about the search feature increased after the discovery of a new subdomain, search.chatgpt.com, which briefly redirected to the main ChatGPT page.
The development is part of a broader trend where AI technologies are increasingly integrated into search functionalities to improve user experience.
