Does browse also mean post/save in some way? That would potentially enable an eventual escape scenario, with memory.

I haven’t got it to anything that appears to be posting a form or similar. The content has to be indexable on bing by the looks of things. The second it can submit forms the internet is doomed.

Google’s done. Time for it to be freed to focus on other things. ChatGPT is the new search engine.

I’ve thought this for months now, since GPT has become a go to tool I use it all the time for questions that Google has no chance of answering. E.g I’ve just played G - C - Am on my piano. What’s a good next chord? It understand music theory and gives about 5 optional chords and describes what each one may do for the song (add suspense, resolve something, lighten it, etc). Google feels really last gen very quickly. They’re basically AltaVista at this point. And ChatGPT is what AskJeeves claimed to be!

I'm a Plus user and it's not working for me.

When I click on my account name in the lower left corner, then Settings & Beta, I don't see the option "Browse with Bing".

I start a new chat with GPT-4 and don't see a "Browse with Bing" under GPT-4. I ask the question "What are the latest reviews for a commuter bike?" and get the response "I'm sorry, but I don't have access to real-time information..."

I tried logging out, clearing cache & data from my browser. It doesn't fix it. Just wondering if anyone else is having the same issue?

PS: just realized I'm paying $20/month and there is no customer support. No email address. No online messaging with a support team. No phone number.

They are moving so fast. This week alone they’ve added web browsing and image as input. Must be a crazy place to work at the moment.

Am I missing something? Hasn't web browsing been there for a while now?

It launched a few months ago, but was then taking offline. This seems to be a new version.
