OpenAI Gets a Little… Googley
OpenAI just announced you can now search "faster" with trending searches and autocomplete suggestions...
Smells Familiar?
Anyone else catching a familiar scent in the air?
As Leo brilliantly put it on X: "This function is very Google." 🤭
We All Saw This Coming
Honestly, from day one, I knew the era of ChatGPT stepping in as an AI-powered Google alternative would arrive.
I just thought they'd hold onto their neutrality a little longer.
The Slippery Slope: From Features to Ads
Once ads start creeping into chats - and we all know trending searches and autocomplete are just the opening act - trust will be harder to maintain. But hey, that's how the world spins.
🔍 A Peek Behind the Curtain
From an SEO and marketing perspective, though, this update is a small window into the backend of user intent - what people are searching for and how ChatGPT processes it.
Now we just need them to bless us with some search volume data too. 😉
