Recently, OpenAI unveiled SearchGPT, a real-time internet search service powered by AI that many believe will bring it closer to competing with Google. However, SearchGPT is currently in a limited beta status, requiring interested users to sign up for a waitlist.
Those who have signed up and are still awaiting their invite to test out the service have received an email from OpenAI stating that they will have to continue waiting. OpenAI mentioned that if the service expands its user base, they will notify everyone again. The waitlist registration is currently closed for additional sign-ups.
OpenAI has indicated that only around 10,000 accounts will be part of the initial testing phase. It is intriguing why OpenAI opted to announce and close further registrations rather than gradually increasing or allowing for ongoing sign-ups. Using a waitlist approach for testing is a common practice.
