Home » Latest news » OpenAI ChatGPT Shopping Gets Smarter with New Update
OpenAI enhances ChatGPT Shopping with personalized product suggestions, reviews and direct links, offering a smarter and more seamless online shopping experience.
This new feature makes it easier for users to find exactly what they want. It simplifies product discovery by offering tailored results based on user input.
The change comes as OpenAI continues to grow its search capabilities. ChatGPT's browsing tool, introduced last year, is now one of its most used features. In the past week alone, it handled over 1 billion web searches.
With this update, OpenAI is stepping further into the online search market. It presents a more user-focused option compared to traditional engines like Google. Unlike Google's ad-heavy results, ChatGPT delivers clean and relevant responses.
OpenAI's growth has been rapid. In February, it surpassed 400 million weekly active users. This rise highlights strong user interest in AI-driven tools.
Now, by making shopping easier through ChatGPT, OpenAI is aiming to reshape how people search and buy online.
The OpenAI ChatGPT shopping update is part of a wider shift. AI tools are changing how users interact with the web, especially in areas like search and e-commerce.
As the digital space evolves, OpenAI is betting on simplicity, speed, and relevance to win user attention.

OpenAI to continue working with Scale AI after Meta deal
OpenAI plans to continue working with Scale AI after rival Meta on Friday agreed to take a 49% stake in the artificial intelligence startup for $14.8 billion, OpenAI's CFO Sarah Friar told the VivaTech conference in Paris. Scale AI provides vast amounts of labelled or curated training data, which is crucial for developing sophisticated tools such as OpenAI's ChatGPT. "We don't want to ice the ecosystem because acquisitions are going to happen," she said. "And if we ice each other out, I think we're actually going to slow the pace of innovation."

AMD takes steps to ‘Advance AI'
Lisa Su the CEO of AMD recently showcased a new AI server planned to launch in 2026 with the goal of challenging Nvidia's flagship offerings. In addition the OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced the company's intent to adopt AMD's latest chips. Su took the stage at a developer conference in San Jose, California, called 'Advancing AI' to discuss the MI350 series and MI400 series AI chips that she said would compete with Nvidia's Blackwell line of processors. The MI400 series of chips will be the basis of a new server called 'Helios' that AMD plans to release next year. The move comes as the competition between Nvidia and other AI chip firms has shifted away from selling individual chips to selling servers packed with scores or even hundreds of processors, woven together with networking chips from the same company. During its keynote presentation, AMD said that many aspects of the Helios servers – such as the networking standards – would be made openly available and shared with competitors such as Intel. The move was a direct swipe at market leader Nvidia, which uses proprietary technology called NVLink to string together its chips but has recently started to license that technology as pressure mounts from rivals. 'The future of AI is not going to be built by any one company or in a closed ecosystem. It's going to be shaped by open collaboration across the industry,' Su said. Su was joined onstage by OpenAI's Sam Altman. The ChatGPT creator is working with AMD on the firm's MI450 chips to improve their design for AI work. 'Our infrastructure ramp-up over the last year, and what we're looking at over the next year, have just been a crazy, crazy thing to watch,' Altman said. During her speech, executives from Elon Musk-owned xAI, Meta Platforms and Oracle took to the stage to discuss their respective uses of AMD processors. Source: Reuters Image Credit: Stock Image

UAE: ChatGPT outage; OpenAI identifies root cause, working towards full recovery
ChatGPT has identified the root cause for the issue causing elevated errors and latency across the listed services, OpenAI said, adding that it is working on implementing a mitigation. There is continued recovery across API and ChatGPT, and engineers have applied the mitigation and are monitoring the recovery. However, they are still monitoring the fix and are working towards full recovery. Users in the UAE reported issued while using ChatGPT as thousands across the globe were hit with an OpenAI outage on Tuesday, as per information on data-tracking website Downdetector. From the reported issues globally, around 93% of users faced problems while using ChatGPT; seven per cent had issues while using the application and a percentage of users were struggling while trying to log into the site. . The technical issues peaked at 1.30pm, when most users reported issues. At 2.45pm, reports had gone down but were still high around the world. In the UAE, reports peaked at 1.40pm and have been ongoing until now. Around 60% of Emirates' users faced issues while trying to use the website; 38 per cent of individuals had issues while logging in and two per cent of users had issues with ChatGPT. Speaking to Khaleej Times, Sarah K., a Dubai resident, said she was trying to compile her university notes but was unable to do so. "I have an assignment due at 5pm and just wanted to compile the notes together, but the page is unresponsive. It feel weird to not get a response from ChatGPT," said the 19-year-old. Earlier this year, ChatGPT removed the sign up option for users, making it simpler for individuals to log in. OpenAI initially launched the search engine to paid subscribers. It soon made it accessible to all users by rolling it out in the same year. Users still required an account to access it, as without one it would only allow for an allocated number of tries for a certain duration. This move is likely to put pressure on search engines like Google and Bing as the platform will now be easily accessible to all.
