Even though it’s been about two weeks since OpenAI launched its AI-powered search engine, few people know that they can now completely replace Google and other search engines with Search ChatGPT

How to set ChatGPT as default search engine?

ChatGPT can be set as the default search engine on all Chromium-based browsers, which means they support downloading extensions from the Chrome Web Store. This means that you can set ChatGPT as the default search engine not only in Google Chrome but also in other popular browsers like Microsoft Edge, Brave and Opera.

To set ChatGPT as your default search engine, open Google Chrome, search for the ChatGPT Search extension or simply click this link to add it. Verify that the extension was successfully added to your browser by checking the extensions tab.

Note that some browsers may automatically disable the ChatGPT Search extension, so it is advisable to add it to the bookmarks bar to ensure that ChatGPT remains your default search engine.

Why can’t I use ChatGPT’s search function?

The ChatGPT search feature is currently only available to the company’s Plus and Team subscribers with access to Enterprise and Education customers to follow in the coming weeks. Although OpenAI hasn’t committed to a release date, the company says free user access will be available soon.

ChatGPT Search is an evolved version of SearchGPT, a prototype AI Search experience introduced by OpenAI earlier this year. So, if you had applied to the SearchGPT waitlist, ChatGPT Search would be available to you even if you don’t have a subscription.
