OpenAI formally brings web search to ChatGPT as DALL-E 3 integration arrives in beta | TechCrunch

Oct 18, 2023 - techcrunch.com
OpenAI has officially launched its internet-browsing feature, Browse with Bing, for ChatGPT, a generative AI chatbot. The feature, which was reintroduced in beta after a hiatus, allows ChatGPT to access data beyond September 2021, making it more useful as a real-time search engine. The feature was initially pulled due to concerns over displaying paywalled content, but has been fine-tuned to follow site-owner instructions in Robots.txt files. The feature is now available to all Plus and Enterprise subscribers.

In addition, OpenAI has transitioned DALL-E 3, a text-to-image generator, into beta. The new version integrates with ChatGPT, allowing users to receive images as part of their text-based queries without switching between apps. These updates are part of OpenAI's broader expansion to make ChatGPT a fully integrated, real-time, multimedia generative search engine, including the ability for users to have verbal conversations with the chatbot and search for answers using images.

Key takeaways:

  • OpenAI has officially launched its internet-browsing feature, Browse with Bing, to ChatGPT, allowing Plus and Enterprise subscribers to access web search without toggling their beta switch in settings.
