OpenAI is making ChatGPT Search available to all users and search in Voice Mode.
Two months ago, ChatGPT Search was launched for ChatGPT Plus users. As of today, it’s rolling out to all free users who are logged in. Search with Advanced Voice Mode also now works with ChatGPT Search.
Just an hour before OpenAI’s announcement, Google unveiled Veo 2, its next-gen text-to-video model. The two companies haven’t been shy about their cutthroat rivalry, often shipping similar products within a day (or in this case hours) of each other. Last week, OpenAI launched its AI video generator Sora, vision for Advanced Voice Mode, and a slew of other minor features. Not to be outdone, Google unveiled its latest model Gemini 2.0, which is touted as an “agentic era” model for handling tasks on the user’s behalf.
