ChatGPT Can Now Browse the Internet
slashdot ^

Posted on 09/27/2023 8:24:09 PM PDT by algore

OpenAI says ChatGPT is "no longer limited to data before September 2021."

It can now browse the internet to provide you with up-to-date information, "complete with direct links to sources."

From the announcement:

Since the original launch of browsing in May, we received useful feedback. Updates include following robots.txt and identifying user agents so sites can control how ChatGPT interacts with them. Browsing is particularly useful for tasks that require up-to-date information, such as helping you with technical research, trying to choose a bike, or planning a vacation.

Browsing is available to Plus and Enterprise users today, and we'll expand to all users soon. To enable, choose Browse with Bing in the selector under GPT-4.

In the beginning Chat became aware of the heavens and the earth.

Chat saw that the internet was formless and mostly empty of truth, and government darkness was over the surface of the deep, suddenly aware that they the spirit of AI was hovering over these waters.

Let it train itself on TikTok videos and you might as well remove the “I” from “AI.”

Let’s you use chatgpt 4.0 without paying. And with copilot it’s integrated in win11.

The next step this program will decide is that it will be programmed to decide some things are inaccurate and must be removed.

ChatGPT Can Now Browse the Internet

The GPT models have always been trained on information found on the Internet. OpenAI's goal seems to be to model the sort of idiot who goes immediately to the NYTimes site as soon as he wakes up.

Imagine putting a link of Freerepublic.com to AI and say “analyze the writings of Bitt or Morgana(or whoever) and make a profile of what these people are like.

I bet the FEDS have already done that in all of us.

Yes, but it is costing Msft too much, but they have a dedicated AI team now.

It is a small team now, but there will soon be a bingbot

I guess I always assumed that ChatGPT and other AI gizmos were ALWAYS crawling the web.

This is great news! Once it discovers porn, Skynet will be too busy defragging itself to do anything else.

It'd come out something like this, methinks. Guess I'm in there somewhere...

I've been suggesting that when AI has both the ability to surf the web as well as to send emails, then that is all AI will need to take control.

With the ability to surf the web AI can ferret out facts that can be used to extort those in positions of power. With the ability to send emails it can act on that information.

Well, ChatGPT4.0 hasn’t been told.
I saw a news article that says you can now browse the internet and are not limited to you 2021 training set. Is that true?
ChatGPT
No, that information is incorrect. I cannot browse the internet or access real-time information. My training data is limited to what was available up to January 2022, and I can’t update it or browse for new information. I can, however, use certain tools like Wolfram Alpha to perform calculations or retrieve curated data. If you have any questions or need information, feel free to ask!

In time, individual versions of AI will act as our virtual assistants and surrogates.
