You Can Now Search the Internet With ChatGPT

The image shows a computer screen displaying a weather forecast for Boston, MA on October 31, 2024, using the ChatGPT 40 interface. The dark mode interface shows the current temperature is 78°F and mostly sunny. In the foreground is a detailed weather report for the next week, including highs and lows, along with weather descriptions. The background shows a standard web browser interface with the URL bar displaying "chatgpt.com". A small, almost unnoticeable, "Share" button is present in the top right corner. There is an alert for a severe weather statement in effect until 8:00 PM EDT. This detail is important as it highlights a safety concern that's not immediately obvious from just looking at the overall sunny forecast. The subtle text and information regarding the 1946 and 1974 temperature records further demonstrate the attention to detail for creating a rich weather history.
ChatGPT search has been out now for about a month and a half, following a Halloween announcement from OpenAI. With this new feature, the company finally rolled out an official competitor to AI search engines like Perplexity, Google’s AI Overviews, and Microsoft Bing (powered by Copilot).

OpenAI originally announced its search plans back in July, with a service called SearchGPT. While SearchGPT was a prototype and launched with a waitlist to try it, ChatGPT search took its place, with OpenAI rolling SearchGPT’s main features into its new search feature. The feature originally launched to paid subscribers only, but now, all users can access it.

We all know that AI can hallucinate, so it is good to now have another good AI search tool that can be used for comparative purposes. Also, for those you actively avoided Google’s tool, this will offer a more neutral alternative option.

See lifehacker.com/tech/openai-cha… and the web address for SearchGPT is chatgpt.com/category/uncategor…

🎯
It was once brilliant and useful, a simple but concise & useful "Boolean search" or simple search of key words/terms.

So amazingly useful and clever, it launched Google across the Alphabet and into the world of ad$, more ads, privacy invasion, data scraping, and more ads based on your response to other ads.... Not so much a tool as a challenge at times, to actually find a response to one's desired search.

Why is #Mozilla collecting our #search data?

source: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-search-update/

Sensitive topics, like searching for particular health care services, are categorized only under broad terms like health or society. Your search activities are handled with the same level of confidentiality as all other data regardless of any local laws surrounding certain health services.

Hello Mozilla, I use Firefox because my privacy is important to me. The best security is still achieved if you don't collect the data. That is why I will use a fork that does not collect search data. It would be nice if Mozilla took user privacy more seriously.

#Google #Search results polluted by buggy AI-written code frustrate coders

#source: https://www.theregister.com/2024/05/01/pulumi_ai_pollution_of_search/

Google has indexed inaccurate infrastructure-as-code samples produced by Pulumi AI – a developer that uses an #AI #chatbot to generate infrastructure – and the rotten recipes are already appearing at the top of search results.
