Searching on Google is getting worse almost every day.
You know it.
You tried to find an answer, but the results are hidden behind all the ads and Quora or Reddit posts.
But there is hope.
An answer from OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT.
The answer is called ChatGPT Search.
What Is ChatGPT Search?
Source (OpenAI)
ChatGPT Search is a new tool that works like a search engine, but it’s built into ChatGPT.
So, instead of opening another app or website, you can type your question right in ChatGPT, and it will search the web for answers.
This makes finding information fast and simple.
When you ask a question, ChatGPT looks up the web in real-time and shows you the results.
It’s different because you get a summary instead of a long list of links.
No ads, no bs articles.
Just the answer right away without having to click around.

How Does ChatGPT Search Work?
It’s really simple.
You type in a question, like “What’s the weather tomorrow?” or “Who won the UFC title last night?” and ChatGPT does the rest.
It searches the web for you. You don’t have to open a separate browser.
It summarizes the answers. You get the main points quickly, so you don’t have to read through long articles.
It provides reliable sources. ChatGPT will show you where it got its information, like news sites or official pages.
All this happens right in ChatGPT.
Why Is ChatGPT Search Useful?
I know that finding information can sometimes be hard.
You have to get through tons of websites to find the right answer.
With tools like ChatGPT, you should get the right information.
Here’s why I think you might like it:
It saves time. You can get quick answers without opening other websites.
It’s reliable. ChatGPT Search uses trustworthy sources like news sites and big media pages.
It’s easy to use. You don’t need to learn any complicated steps – just type your question, and ChatGPT does the rest.
In a time, when Google is offering crappy results, ChatGPT Search might feel like a fresh, easy solution.
Comparing ChatGPT Search to Google
Experts and even regular people who are searching for information are complaining about Google search results.
Here’s how they compare:
Google shows many links. When you search in Google, you usually get a list of links. And ads. You have to click on each one to read more.
ChatGPT gives summaries. With ChatGPT Search, you get a short answer to your question. This can make it easier to get the main idea without reading lots of details.
Google is more for deep searches. If you want lots of details on a topic, Google might be better. But for quick answers, ChatGPT Search can be faster.
Right now, Google is still much bigger and gets more visitors, but ChatGPT Search is catching up. Some people even use both to get the best of both worlds.
How to Get Started with ChatGPT Search
Right now, ChatGPT Search is available to ChatGPT Plus and Teams users.
This means if you’re already using ChatGPT’s paid version, you can start using it today. Here’s what to do:
Log into your ChatGPT account.
Turn on the “Search the Web” mode. There’s a search button you can click to start searching.
If you’re not a ChatGPT Plus member, you have to wait a bit longer. But the good news is that ChatGPT plans to bring this feature to everyone soon.
If you’re looking for quick, clear answers, ChatGPT Search is just what you need.
It’s fast, simple, and easy to use. You get answers right away without opening new pages or clicking around.
I think this tool is especially helpful for people who want a reliable source of information without too much hassle.
And if you’re already using ChatGPT, this feature adds even more value to the experience.
In Summary:
ChatGPT Search saves time by giving quick answers.
It’s easy to use with just one click to turn on search mode.
It’s reliable and uses trusted sources.
All the best,
Miroslav from The Zilahut
