New OpenAI Feature Benefits Researchers and Businesses

The “Update” feature could certainly be beneficial for businesses that use chatbots such as ChatGPT to conduct in-depth research and give detailed queries. For example, if you are referencing a document which you later realize is out of date, you can tell ChatGPT to exclude it from its answer as it is “thinking”.

Likewise, it will mean less time waiting around for ChatGPT to produce an answer you know is wrong, before having to correct it with another prompt. Instead, the chatbot can adjust itself as quickly as possible, saving you time and maximizing efficiency.

This update will definitely make the chatbot more collaborative, and benefit those who want to have of a back-and-forth conversation that more closely mirrors real life.

OpenAI Continues Surge of New and Improved Products

This update to ChatGPT comes admist a range of new announcements from OpenAI. Recently, it has released an AI-powered web browser, known as Atlas, which could potentially rival sector leader Google Chrome.

OpenAI have also recently enabled limited access to the second iteration of its highly successful AI video editing app, Sora, which surpassed ChatGPT in downloads over a specific period of time.

No doubt looking to rival competitors such as Gemini and Claude, these new additions could see OpenAI take bold strides forward in becoming the world’s leading AI company.
