Azure openAI and ChatGPT internet search capabilities

Question

We notice that while using ChatGPT, there is on certain situation where it handle prompt by searching the internet (refer screenshot). Is this available in Azure OpenAI LLM model? As I understand it the LLM model in Azure OpenAI is not intended to crawl over the internet like ChatGPT. If not, can this be setup the sameway like it has in ChatGPT? We plan to setup an apps for internal usage with our own data and train it with GPT 3.5Turbo. But we want to also allow it to search the internet to pull in data information as a supplement information, just like it does in chatGPT. can this be build?

Answer 1

@Rusydan (Dan) Models deployed using Azure OpenAI cannot search the internet like ChatGPT.

You can use your deployed model with a set of URLs as a data source though. This comes with its limitations where files are still stored on Azure storage containers and then indexed with Azure AI search and then used by the model. This will also not use the latest content from the URL, as it only checks for the index that was used while it was first created.

I hope this helps!!
