ChatGPT’s New ‘Research’ Feature: The Good and the Bad
It’s been barely a day since OpenAI released Deep Research, a new ChatGPT feature that helps customers conduct multi-step research. And already it’s gotten at least one rave review.
Derya Unutmaz, a professor of immunology at the Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine who’s been testing the feature since he was granted early access on Friday, said he asked Deep Research to write a report on the latest advancements and gaps in research for cell therapy known as CAR-T. Deep Research asked him several questions to clarify his request, such as whether he wanted to focus on a specific type of cancer or immunotherapy, or if he only wanted the model to cite information from scientific journals versus general news articles.
Those specialized questions indicated that Deep Research already understood a lot about the subject. (You can see an example of a report Deep Research wrote for Unutmaz here.)
