		Connecting ChatGPT with the Internet

	


	


	





You want to try ChatGPT with Internet connectivity so that you can ask about events beyond 2021, but don't have access to AI-enabled Bing and don't want to wait for Google's Bard? SearchGPT gives you this functionality today - it crawls the Internet for information and then feeds it back to ChatGPT.

## Usage



The easiest way to get started with search-gpt is to run the following:



```sh

export OPENAI_API_KEY=

export GOOGLE_SEARCH_API_KEY=

export GOOGLE_SEARCH_ID=



npx search-gpt

```



Alternatively, you can also run:



```sh

npm install --global search-gpt



# Run SearchGPT with this command

searchgpt

```



Ensure you have your own [Google Search API key](https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/introduction), [Programmable Search Engine](https://programmablesearchengine.google.com/controlpanel/all) and [OpenAI API key](https://platform.openai.com/) before running the CLI.



Once the CLI starts, it will prompt you to enter a question. Simply type in your query, and the AI assistant will search the web and generate a response.



## How it works



This is a proof of concept and is far from a proper implementation (e.g., Microsoft's [Prometheus Model](https://techcrunch.com/2023/02/07/openais-next-generation-ai-model-is-behind-microsofts-new-search)) - I wanted to experiment how easy it could be to crawl certain search engines and then feed these results into a large language model (LLM) such as GPT 3.5. Apart from querying Google Search, one could also think about integrating other APIs to crawl data and then feed it into the LLM.

  A[User enters question] --> B[Search Google]

  A --> C[Search Twitter, not implemented yet]

  A --> D[Search other engines]

  B --> E[Search results handed to ChatGPT]

  E --> F[ChatGPT uses this context to provide an answer]

```



Please note: the current implementation feeds Google Search results to `gpt-3.5-turbo` and does not include previous messages in subsequent queries to avoid surpassing the token limit.
