OpenAI is pushing Google and opening up search with artificial intelligence to everyone, even in Italy, a tool launched in October and until now only available to paid users.
The new competitor of Google and Microsoft is called, as is known, SearchGpt and was developed by Sam Altman’s company and presented in October. With the global opening, it becomes available for free to everyone, even in Italy: just access the ChatGpt website or apps to select the ‘search’ button at the bottom and activate the online engine.
The chatbot can search the internet to retrieve up-to-date information and answer broader questions. Instead of the classic links returned by traditional search engines, SearchGpt responds to the questions posed with a text in a conversational way, a kind of summary to which it attaches the sources from which it took the results. “We are making the ChatGpt experience easier to understand thanks to updated information from the web – says Adam Fry, ChatGpt Research Manager -: we distribute it to hundreds of millions of users”.
OpenAI also announced that users will be able to use the Advanced Voice feature with search. This feature will be available globally for free users. The rollout is expected over the next week, the company says.
The SearchGpt novelty is part of a sort of OpenAI advent calendar, which consists of 12 days of announcements and presentations. Among the main ones, which occurred in recent days, was the opening of Sora, the platform that can generate 5 or 20 second films from textual indications with artificial intelligence. At the moment, however, this tool is not active in EU countries, including Italy, due to regulations on the use of user data.
