ChatGPT search now uses the site:operator at scale

Simon Willison’s Weblog 2 months ago 12

ChatGPT Search has started using the site: operator at a much higher rate in its replies, as tracked by Promptwatch across major chat products. The share of ChatGPT Search fanout queries containing site:operator jumped from about 0.15% on August 3–5 to 16–17% on August 8. As a result, companies in the generative engine optimization space can measure and adjust their prompt-targeting strategies to better influence ChatGPT Search results.

ChatGPT can now send texts for you with new Apple Messages plug-in

TechCrunch 2 months ago 2

OpenAI launched an Apple Messages plug-in for ChatGPT that connects a user’s Messages inbox to the chatbot for actions like sorting, analyzing, editing, drafting, and sending messages. The plug-in was released on August 20, 2026 at 3:09 PM PDT. It changes workflows by letting ChatGPT generate and send follow-up texts (and potentially delete or search message history) with local processing, while requiring users to review messages because persistent approval removes their last chance to check before sending.
