yes, I was using search in the other more generic sense (e.g. beam search). The google search thing is really only interesting if they can bind the tokens to the result, otherwise you're just going to have to re-google to vet the chatb

How would the model even recognize which tokens represent people? Google is chasing fool's gold if they think they can restrict this. I'd bet a very large sum of money that these gigantic model authors are intentionally trying to
