The mentioned features include improved goods results, visual product details, pricing and reviews, and direct links to buy. The relevant information is contained in a message that OpenAI published on the social media platform X.

The new features will be available to Plus, Pro, Free, and logged-out users.

The launch of the shopping experience began on Monday and will take several days to complete. In a message published by OpenAI, it was noted that product results are chosen independently and are not ads.

In another post on X, the company said that it has made several improvements to search on ChatGPT. It was noted that search has become one of the brand’s most popular & fastest-growing features, with over 1 billion web searches just in the past week.

New improvements include the ability to send a WhatsApp message to ChatGPT to get up-to-date answers and live sports scores, the delivery of multiple citations with each response so that users can learn more or verify information, and the use of trending searches and autocomplete suggestions to make search faster.

It is worth noting that against the background of the active development of artificial intelligence and the scaling of the practice of using AI, the issue of cybersecurity has become more relevant. Scammers also have access to machine intelligence tools. For this reason, their activities have become more sophisticated. To counteract the corresponding threat in the virtual space, personal awareness of users is important. For example, an Internet search query such as how to know if my camera is hacked will allow anyone to get information about signs of unauthorized access to the device.
