OpenAI is gearing up to launch a search engine fueled by artificial intelligence, potentially putting it in competition with Google. Known as SearchGPT, this new technology is the latest venture from the innovative tech company.
SearchGPT aims to combine AI with real-time information, drawing from transparent and relevant sources. This addresses a key concern following Google’s AI rollout, which had to backtrack due to inaccuracies. OpenAI’s approach involves prominently featuring and linking to publishers to enhance user experience.
According to OpenAI, the search engine has garnered support from major publishers like The Atlantic. CEO Nicholas Thompson expressed excitement about the partnership, emphasizing the importance of valuing journalism in the digital landscape.

We are eager to collaborate with OpenAI to introduce readers to a fresh way of engaging with The Atlantic,” remarked Nicholas Thompson in a press release.
OpenAI is currently conducting trials for a SearchGPT prototype. Interested users can sign up for the platform’s waitlist here. The official launch date for the service has not yet been disclosed.
