    Artifact can now search the web in a much better way than before. You can get fast, timely answers with links to relevant web sources, without needing to visit a separate search engine.

    How to Search in Artifact

    To begin your search, you can simply ask Artifact a question that would benefit from web information, or use the search tools directly from the chat interface.

    Artifact will automatically search the web when your question might benefit from current information. You can also trigger web search by asking questions about recent events, current data, or specific factual information.
