Chat with Internet Sources
The Next Step in Information Processing
Instead of relying on public datasets and general knowledge, "Chat with Internet Sources" generates current information by first performing an internet search. This search is based on the prompt and initially looks for 5 relevant internet sources. These internet sources are then added to the prompt, and only then is the answer requested from the language model.
Search Types
The system offers three different ways to retrieve information:
- Search: General web searches for textual information and web pages
- Videos: Searching for videos and multimedia content
- News: Specifically searching for news articles and current reports
Based on the prompt, the most suitable search type is automatically selected to obtain the best results.
A separate tool is available for searching images. See the Tools section for more information about the "Image Search" functionality.
Search Integration
Searches are performed through the search capability available for the environment and the selected model.
