The ChatGPT website went down for a few minutes and then I saw this update.
“As of July 3, 2023, we’ve disabled the Browse with Bing beta feature out of an abundance of caution while we fix this in order to do right by content owners. We are working to bring the beta back as quickly as possible, and appreciate your understanding!”

Just noticed this. Honestly a bit worried that it’s going to be nerfed to an unreasonable degree once it comes back.
Nerfed more?
By making it take 5 minutes to complete a search rather than 2 minutes?
By failing 80% of the time rather than 40%
Have you had it reply “Sorry, I didn’t have enough time to complete the search. I’ll keep on researching and come back to you”
and then 3 queries (on unrelated matters) later rather than answering the future query it answers the query from 3 queries ago?
A bit of a joke.
I’m here cause I used the Bing feature like 2 hours ago to search the Panthers upcoming NFL schedule. Come back to test some other ideas and it’s gone. Didn’t even GPT published an iOS app until earlier today. Bad timing for me
Don’t you think for relatively simple queries (and perhaps more complicated) bing chat is more than sufficient?
