00:00.570 --> 00:02.940
-: Let me walk you through ChatGPT search.

00:02.940 --> 00:06.390
This is a new addition to ChatGPT.

00:06.390 --> 00:09.030
It did have the ability to search before,

00:09.030 --> 00:10.500
but it's gotten a lot better

00:10.500 --> 00:12.060
and it looks at multiple sources now.

00:12.060 --> 00:16.827
Let me just search here for, "Who won the election?"

00:18.270 --> 00:19.847
And it's searching the web.

00:19.847 --> 00:21.660
And it gives us the right answer now,

00:21.660 --> 00:24.390
because it has up-to-date information

00:24.390 --> 00:26.190
from the searches it did.

00:26.190 --> 00:31.170
It gives us a specific credit to the sources,

00:31.170 --> 00:32.730
which is useful.

00:32.730 --> 00:35.550
Here, in this case, it's all the Wall Street Journal,

00:35.550 --> 00:38.580
and you can see here a bit more information.

00:38.580 --> 00:42.630
Now, if you look on Citations,

00:42.630 --> 00:45.120
it chose this one specifically.

00:45.120 --> 00:46.830
There's also other ones as well.

00:46.830 --> 00:49.170
So you can look at Reuters.

00:49.170 --> 00:51.810
You can click through specifically to see this.

00:51.810 --> 00:56.010
Now, the interesting thing that I found

00:56.010 --> 00:58.857
is that even if you turn search off,

00:58.857 --> 01:01.620
and you say, "Who won the election?"

01:01.620 --> 01:02.970
It will still do a search.

01:02.970 --> 01:06.840
So it's actually, as we speak right now,

01:06.840 --> 01:10.440
it's not actually possible to turn this feature off.

01:10.440 --> 01:12.960
Like it will bring this in regardless,

01:12.960 --> 01:15.900
whenever you're asking for some up-to-date information.

01:15.900 --> 01:18.000
But it is quite useful.

01:18.000 --> 01:21.210
Now, if you want to turn the search off,

01:21.210 --> 01:23.130
you could go into New Chat,

01:23.130 --> 01:27.210
and then if you just switch to ChatGPT Classic,

01:27.210 --> 01:29.757
you can say, "Who won the election?"

01:32.100 --> 01:35.040
And here it tells us.

01:35.040 --> 01:38.010
It actually refuses to answer this, which is fun.

01:38.010 --> 01:40.020
But let's see if we get answer out of it.

01:40.020 --> 01:45.020
But, I think, because this is a very hot topic,

01:45.990 --> 01:47.883
that's probably why it refuses.

01:52.410 --> 01:53.243
Interesting.

01:54.120 --> 01:56.580
So that's how ChatGPT search works.

01:56.580 --> 02:00.570
I would say it's useful, especially for specific situations

02:00.570 --> 02:03.120
where you need up-to-date information.

02:03.120 --> 02:04.837
Another good example here is,

02:04.837 --> 02:09.250
"What are the latest trends amongst teens

02:11.285 --> 02:16.285
in terms of streetwear fashion?"

02:17.580 --> 02:20.370
'Cause it searches multiple articles,

02:20.370 --> 02:21.810
it can be quite useful,

02:21.810 --> 02:23.670
and it can even bring back images,

02:23.670 --> 02:25.890
and then it can summarize all these different things.

02:25.890 --> 02:29.460
So here it's looking at InStyle, College Fashion,

02:29.460 --> 02:30.990
it's got a few different sites.

02:30.990 --> 02:32.692
And you can click through

02:32.692 --> 02:35.250
and see the validation here if it's any good.

02:35.250 --> 02:38.160
The other thing I found it quite useful for

02:38.160 --> 02:39.633
is like restaurants:

02:40.854 --> 02:45.854
"Is there a restaurant near me that sells french fries?"

02:48.720 --> 02:51.390
Because it has your IP address,

02:51.390 --> 02:55.200
it will actually do a search for you.

02:55.200 --> 02:56.700
Unfortunately, it's not very accurate

02:56.700 --> 02:58.170
because it's just based on IP,

02:58.170 --> 02:59.640
and I don't live in Birmingham,

02:59.640 --> 03:02.190
but that's where my IP address is.

03:02.190 --> 03:03.300
It is pretty good.

03:03.300 --> 03:05.520
It gives you back a map here, a list.

03:05.520 --> 03:07.860
So, really gunning for Google here.

03:07.860 --> 03:09.870
But again, I would recommend you click through

03:09.870 --> 03:11.913
to check the search results first.

03:13.380 --> 03:15.120
Hopefully that's useful.

03:15.120 --> 03:16.830
It's much better than the previous search,

03:16.830 --> 03:18.990
which would only search maybe one thing at a time.

03:18.990 --> 03:21.483
So, I've been using this more and more.
