OpenAI intends to develop a search engine to compete with Google

According to a report by Bloomberg, a source revealed that OpenAI is developing a search engine as a feature of ChatGPT, which will use referenced sources to provide answers. This move will directly compete with Google and Perplexity.

OpenAI May Launch Search Engine

To Compete More with Google

Amid increasing competition in the chatbot space, there are rumors that OpenAI may be developing its own search engine technology to offer users more comprehensive question-and-answer solutions, bringing new vitality and progress to the search engine field.

According to Bloomberg, this feature would allow users to ask questions when using ChatGPT and receive detailed information from the web. For example, if a user asks ChatGPT how to change a doorknob, the result might include a chart illustrating the task.

However, it could also be that the search engine is being developed as a new product line, in which case it would directly compete with Google.

Rumors suggest that news about the search engine may be announced as early as 5/9. It seems to be an attempt to release the news ahead of the Google I/O event, where the latter will announce new developments in the Gemini model.

Possibly Supported by Bing Technology

The search engine technology could also be supported by Microsoft's own Bing technology. In the past, OpenAI integrated GPT-4 into Bing in a collaborative case, indicating significant potential for collaboration between the two.

However, the actual product and presentation method will need to wait for official information to confirm. There have been many rumors in the past about new product lines from OpenAI.
