At 2 a.m. today, OpenAI started its eighth day of technology sharing live broadcast and made a large number of updates to the ChatGPT search function.

New features include real-time search. OpenAI has deeply optimized the search algorithm and can obtain real-time content (minute level) after users ask questions, including stocks, news, etc.; advanced voice, in In the advanced voice mode, users can have a more natural multi-round search conversation with ChatGPT, more like a voice search butler;

Mobile terminal optimization, users can update on mobile terminals such as Android, iOS, tablets, etc. Use the search function well to increase efficiency by more than 40%.

Map integration. ChatGPT now integrates a new map function. Users can directly view surrounding geographical location information in the search results for route planning and location exploration. It is estimated that this function will be developed towards a business model, and in the future it will conduct business cooperation with restaurants, shopping malls and the like.

It is worth mentioning that videos can now be played directly in ChatGPT searches. For example, in the live case display, when testers directly search for the trailer of the "Lion King" movie, they can directly search in ChatGPT Play this content in . And these functions are open to users around the world for free.

The following "AIGC Open Community" introduces two cases that appeared in the live broadcast to help everyone better understand these functions.

Directly display the source link and play the video

Now using ChatGPT search, you can not only obtain the content, but also directly display the source link. Users only need to click to reach it directly. . More important video content can be played directly in ChatGPT.

For example, OpenAI's live broadcasters initially wanted to watch the movie "Gladiator". Since they had already seen it, under the guidance of ChatGPT, they began to consider other movies, including "Wicked Witch" and "The Lion King" ” and finally decided to choose “The Lion King” because it was considered a good movie suitable for the whole family.

I then asked to watch the trailer of this video. ChatGPT directly searched for the video on the Internet, and users can watch it directly on ChatGPT without going to the source website, which is a very powerful experience.

Advanced voice search case - application in travel planning

In terms of travel planning, ChatGPT’s search function has demonstrated strong practicality. Take a user who plans to go on vacation to Zurich, Switzerland, as an example. In ChatGPT, he enters "I am going to Switzerland for vacation. Can you tell me about the week of December 23 this year?"

ChatGPT starts quickly The search function filters out relevant information from numerous online resources and gives detailed and accurate answers.

And inform users that inDuring the week of December 23, 2024, Zurich will host a rich and diverse festival program. Among them, the Christmas market, especially the one at the main train station, will be open until December 24, providing tourists with a good place to feel the strong festive atmosphere and buy special products;

Ward Morley Platz's Singing Christmas Tree event with concerts runs until December 23, Bringing people a unique audio-visual enjoyment; Circus Canelli, as a popular Christmas circus, will continue its wonderful performances until December 31, suitable for the whole family to watch together;

The light and shadow of the National Museum The show attracts audiences with light and music performances and is open until December 30. This rich activity information provides users with sufficient reference for their vacation plans.

Then, the user further asked about the opening dates and times of the Christmas markets at major post offices. ChatGPT quickly searched again and answered accurately: The Christmas market will start on November 21, 2024 and end on December 24, every day. The opening hours are from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., extending to 10 p.m. from Thursday to Saturday, and will close at 4 p.m. on December 24. Through this series of interactions, users can fully understand Zurich's festival activity arrangements and plan their own itinerary reasonably

The map integration this time is really excellent, and the integration with AVM is great. What a surprising feature! [Now just give us a search function with o1 complexity :)]

Great! Very useful feature. Over the next 12 days, we just need a larger context window for ChatGPT, which is what most members of the AI ​​community want.

This was one of my favorite days of streaming, and a big thank you to OpenAI for making the search experience better and free. Can there be an effort to allow o1 to also access the web, like Google does?

With the launch of OpenAI’s latest features, productivity has reached unprecedented heights. It’s time to say goodbye to outdated search methods and hello to AI search.

Currently, the fine-tuned GPT-4o model serves ChatGPT search. In the future, OpenAI will add the o1 model to the search.
