OpenAI is working on a search feature for ChatGPT that can pull information from the web with citations, potentially competing with Google and startup Perplexity. The product may include images with responses to questions. Google is also exploring AI search capabilities with plans to unveil Gemini AI models at its upcoming event.

The feature would allow users to ask questions and receive answers with web details and citations. OpenAI’s ChatGPT currently offers limited search results for paid users, with some citation capabilities. Social media speculation suggests a search feature is in development. The AI industry is focused on chatbots and search functionalities.

The search product in development could help OpenAI keep up with competitors in the AI industry, offering enhanced search capabilities. ChatGPT can provide search results and citations for certain queries, but users must pay for the feature. Despite some hiccups, the feature has the potential to expand the chatbot’s offerings and improve user experience.
