An important innovation is coming for Apple users. According to the information provided, you will now be able to use ChatGPT directly instead of Google in the Safari browser.

Here are the details!
It is now possible to use ChatGPT instead of Google in Safari
OpenAI has started to offer users the opportunity to direct their searches made via Safari to ChatGPT with the new Safari extension it added to the ChatGPT application. Thanks to this feature, everything you type in Safari’s search bar will be answered directly via ChatGPT Search.

All you need to do to use this feature is to update your ChatGPT application to the latest version and enable the ChatGPT Search extension by going to the Safari tab from the Settings application on your iPhone or iPad. After doing this, your default search engine will automatically be directed to ChatGPT.
OpenAI states that this feature is not directly added to Safari’s default search engines, but that this extension offers a kind of alternative solution. You also need to allow your device to access Google or the current default search engine settings for the extension to work.
When you activate ChatGPT Search, every question you type into Safari’s search bar will be processed directly by ChatGPT without going to Google or other search engines. OpenAI’s existing usage policies will also apply to this extension.
This innovation provides users with faster and more interactive access to information, while offering an alternative to Google and other search engines.
