Searching with AI can be better than a traditional search engine, just compare Google with the new ChatGPT search. More concise results, better suited to research and with the possibility of searching as if we were talking to any other person. I tried it and I think it will become my favorite search engine.
To search for anything on the Internet, we all usually cite Google, although it is not the only search engine that dispels doubts: from Bing to DuckDuckGo, search tools are numerous. And now AI is getting involved, which assistants based on Artificial Intelligence They are also suitable for locating anything. In fact, ChatGPT wants to take the search engine throne from Google itself. There is no shortage of skills.

Concrete and intelligent research, ChatGPT is more resolute than Google
Internet search option in ChatGPT
Open AI brought its search to all users as another feature of ChatGPT. We could always wonder who painted the Sistine Chapel, for example, the difference is that the new search engine is not based solely on the training of the AI: its results are obtained from updated web pages. Like Google itself.
ChatGPT Search is added to the “+” in the writing box, among all file embedding options. Simply open the ChatGPT app (or web browser), click the aforementioned “+”, choose the globe icon and write whatever you want: ChatGPT will search the Internet for the clearest, most reliable and concise answer so that we don't have to search through the dozens of results provided by Google.
ChatGPT search is a hybrid between Google and AI assistant: the results are specifically tailored to what we can
The big difference between the ChatGPT search engine and Google lies precisely in the effectiveness of Open AI's results: among all the tests I carried out, I resolved doubts much more quickly and efficiently. Because:
- ChatGPT provides much more accurate search results. No need to search through different results pages, the answer usually appears on the first try.
- ChatGPT enables natural search. We've gotten used to concatenating keywords to optimize Google searches, but in ChatGPT it's not necessary. In fact, the clearer and more extensive the order, the more effective it will be in responding, just as we would ask another person. Just like when we create an image with AI.
- We can specify the tone of the text. If we want a list, different results combined, the answers appear in verse… ChatGPT Search solves it. It has the best of a generative AI and a search engine.
- We can delve deeper into the answers. Depending on the outcome, ChatGPT lets you continue to expand on the information simply by asking for it.
Choice of language model and Internet search
Although there are improvements, ChatGPT shares some weaknesses with Google: Your answers are as reliable as the web pages they serve as a source. Additionally, it depends on whether the pages that provide the information are updated. And it will only take the data it deems relevant: if we want to locate unusual data, ChatGPT Search won't be of much use. Almost like Google itself.
A new way to search…that Google will soon include
Different results for a specific search
Generative AI will cover all the uses we make of our devices, including the Internet. And we will have smart results everywhere, not just in ChatGPT Search: search with Google AI already works in countries like the United States. And it won't take long to land in Europe.
Open AI creates a very competent chatbot, especially with language models like GPT-o1, already released in preview. Although yes, the search engine only works with previous omni modelGPT-4o (and GPT-4o mini). He remains very efficient, even if he does not reason as well as his new brother. After all, displaying search results does not require excessive reasoning.
Google was surpassed in terms of efficiency, accuracy and concreteness. And not just for ChatGPT Search, but also for other tools, like Perplexity: Searching using AI saves a lot of time and effort. Because you just have to try these tools to avoid going back to Google, they are much more effective. And without leaving the ChatGPT app, it's worth a try.
