Hi all,

I'm just playing around with the WebchatGPT chrome extension.

One of the advantages is it can give you much more up to date information.

For example, normally ChatGPT thinks Boris Johnson is the PM of the UK.

However, with this extension downloaded you get an extra bit at the bottom:

You can choose whether of not you want web access or just the ordinary chatgpt. And as you see you have some drop down menus to play with.

When I asked who the PM of the UK was, first it showed me the websites it was looking at for information and links to go there:

Then it answered my question:

It gave me a little bit of extra information - and referenced where it got that information from. Obviously I would change my prompt for more information.

I think this makes it a great research tool and great for fact checking.

What do you think?

All the best,

Julia
