      That's still not how chatgpt works. That's how the plugin developed for iTerm2 works, but the actual result from chatgpt needs to be filtered by iTerm2 to get to the result in the demonstration. What's stopping the same filtering from being used on a google search result instead of a response from an LLM API?
