OpenAI Search
Launch Date:Â TBD
Product Type:Â AI Search Engine
Pricing:Â TBD
Target audience:Â Consumer
Description:Â On February 15, 2024, The Information blog reported that OpenAI is developing an internet search product, partly powered by Microsoft's Bing search engine, that will potentially rival Google search. At present are no other details, including whether it will be a standalone search engine or integrated within ChatGPT. Rather than getting a list of links, both organic and paid, based on whatever keywords or questions a user types in, AI Search Engines create a text result in the form of an answer. For example, if a user types "7 day vacation packages to Mexico", instead of a bunch of links to Yelp and blog postings that require clicking and reading, an AI Search Engine will produce a detailed itinerary.
Risks associated with AI Search Engine technology:
A lack of comprehensive content indexing can make AI search prone to producing search results that include misinformation and factual inaccuracies.
Alternatives: Google Gemini Search
