Excited to see how this compares to Perplexity or Gemini. I remember that ChatGPT used to be able to search the web, but last I checked it it couldn't. I wonder why they removed that feature
- 85392_school 2y agoSearch was not removed from ChatGPT, although it can be glitchy at times.
- BryantD 2y agoAlso not all models support it. I think only gpt-4o and gpt-4o-mini support it, although I haven't triple checked that.
- newfocogi 2y agoChatGPT can search the web (I just checked in my account). It appears to be available for all users (not just paid): https://help.openai.com/en/articles/9237897-chatgpt-search https://help.openai.com/en/articles/9237897-chatgpt-search
- Brusco_RF 2y agoI definitely tried to web search with ChatGPT a few weeks ago and it couldn't. I don't think I'm making this up. Unless I suffered a TBI.
- callamdelaney 2y agoIt told me it can't search the web and then proceeded to search the web
- cactusplant7374 2y agoAbout half my requests end up going to web search. But if you ask it for something specific like "find an X-ray image with an abnormality," then it refuses.
- simonw 2y agoWeb search is available for some but not all of their models. It is not particularly obvious from their UI which models have this feature.
- beng-nl 2y agoAs sibling said, search was nog removed. But not all models can use the web search, maybe that is causing your perception?
