Google Search is getting an AI Mode to compete with ChatGPT Search
OpenAI has done something that some people thought would be impossible. The company created an AI-powered search engine called ChatGPT Search, which has been in beta tests for a while now. OpenAI made ChatGPT Search available to all ChatGPT users a few days ago. Until then, only premium users had access to it. ChatGPT Search isn't quite a Google Search killer, but I've started to appreciate it more and more as I use ChatGPT.
As surprising as it might sound, ChatGPT Search is exactly the kind of product a newcomer to the AI online search business can afford to release. Meanwhile, Google, the most likely company to bring AI to online search, doesn't have the same freedom.
Remember how Bard fumbled its initial demos, causing Google stock to crash? Also, think of the "glue on pizza" AI Overview fumbles that Google had to fix. These are examples that prove Google can't just add AI to Google Search and hope for the best.
Google Search must provide correct information and be at least as reliable as its hundreds of millions of users expect it to be. AI hallucinations can be a big problem in that regard. At the same time, Google needs to offer users an AI online search tool like ChatGPT Search. Failure to do it wouldn't look good either.
That's probably where Google's new AI Mode will come in handy.
