The search engine has come to be the organising principle of our technological lives – it’s how almost all of us get around the rapidly expanding landscape that is the internet. And for life on our digital planet, there are primarily three rival megaflora: Google, MICROSOFT, and a new plant that might, reframed, devour them both. Welcome to this weird ecological drama. Thus it begins: armed with its brand-new supercomputer, OpenAI has announced that it will start building search engines. It’s war on the tech giants – well, MICROSOFT specifically.
After much speculation, murmurs have started up again in the tech industry that OpenAI, the makers of the wildly successful ChatGPT, are preparing to enter the search engine market. Tech analysis site Protocol reports that the creators of ChatGPT are calling the new search engine ‘directly competitive’ with MICROSOFT’s Bing and Google. It’s this last bit that’s worth noting. For a search engine war, the weapon of choice will be a new kind of AI-powered search engine that promises to offer a user experience and kind of search that we’ve never seen before.
A huge ruckus broke out when OpenAI registered a new domain – search.chatgpt.com – to potentially usher in the next key innovation in search. At the moment, the domain points to a not-found page, but the message is clear. Given OpenAI’s recent history with AI and machine learning technologies, we can expect a search engine like nothing we’ve seen before, powered by the possibilities of advanced AI for results that could be more relevant and contextual than anything we’ve had so far.
I’m not saying that MICROSOFT’s work with AI in Bing hasn’t been pioneering – and the current CEO Satya Nadella has brought Bing rapidly up in engagement to more than 140 million daily active users, with a big part of this success being the result of the company’s work with AI, itself putting Bing in a good position to challenge Google’s dominance in the search market. The open question, though, is what OpenAI’s foray into search might open up. This could be another chapter in the story.
We can’t help speculating what’ll happen when LLMs merge with search engine technology, and we’re not alone; OpenAI’s chief executive Sam Altman has indicated that finding out is an active area of interest. Almost certainly, it’ll improve GTIs’ efforts to match up users’ questions with their highest-ranked ‘answers’. GTIs already have many ways of understanding a user’s intention and selecting their answer, and there’s little reason to think LLMs will be any different, apart from being much bigger. But the question remains: are those underlying processes capable of delivering a satisfactory search experience? I don’t think they are, because current search methods suffer from a basic conceptual limitation: GTIs don’t really comprehend what’s in the answer.
OpenAI has yet to find an answer OpenAI’s own search engine faces a more fundamental challenge: copyright. Both ChatGPT and MICROSOFT’s Copilot have been embroiled in legal disputes because they rely on massive amounts of copyrighted Content scraped from the internet. This Is a vital fork in the road for OpenAI: should it come up with an answer, not only will its own search engine be enabled, but case precedents around AI technologies accessing and utilising public information could be set.
At its heart, what we’ve always had with MICROSOFT is a company at the vanguard of technology, from its early bets on computer operating systems to its efforts today in AI and search (via Bing, perhaps). It stands to reason that, with AI becoming more and more integral to its strategy, it will be ready for any jabs thrown its way, even by newcomers like OpenAI.
