ChatGPT online search engine now available to all users

OpenAI je 16. decembra napovedal, da postaja njihov AI spletni iskalnik dostopen vsem uporabnikom. Novico so sporočili v okviru njihove serije 12 dni “ship-mas” prenosov, v katerih so predstavili tudi “optimizirano” različico funkcije za mobilne naprave ter možnost iskanja z naprednim glasovnim načinom.

ChatGPT's search engine was initially available only to paid subscribers in October, but will now be available to free users as well. The prerequisite for this is to create an OpenAI account and be logged in to the service as a user.

One of the improvements to mobile search has made ChatGPT more like a traditional search engine. When you search for a specific location, such as a restaurant or local attraction, ChatGPT displays a list of results with images, ratings, and opening hours. Clicking on a location gives you more detailed information about the place, and you can also see a map with driving directions in the app.

Druga funkcija je zasnovana tako, da pohitri iskanje v ChatGPT-ju, ko iščete določene vrste spletnih strani, na primer “spletna mesta za rezervacijo hotelov”. Namesto da bi takoj ponudil odgovor, ChatGPT najprej prikaže povezave do spletnih strani, šele nato pa ponudi podrobnejše informacije o posamezni možnosti. Poleg tega lahko ChatGPT v načinu “Advanced Voice Mode” samodejno zagotavlja ažurne informacije s spleta, vendar je ta možnost na voljo le uporabnikom, ki za storitev plačajo.

In previous videos as part of the 12-day reveal, OpenAI also announced the launch of its text-to-image model called Sora, he also announced a subscription to ChatGPT Pro in the amount of 200 US dollars per month.
