Unlocking Efficiency: AI Web Browsing and Ethical Impacts in Professional Fields 

 October 26, 2023

By  Joe Habscheid

Summary: As technology continues its rapid progression, AI-assisted web browsing is unveiling new levels of efficiency and convenience for professionals across various fields, including law, medicine, and consultancy. This post delves into the newest features and implications of OpenAI’s chatbot, ChatGPT, as well as alternatives for the cost-conscious users. However, with great power comes tremendous responsibility. We ought to recognize that aligning this technology towards beneficial and ethical applications remains not just a challenge but a necessity.


Let’s begin with the newest feature in our spotlight, OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Not only does this chatbot facilitate simplified dialogue, but it has gained the ability to browse the web using Bing and even create images using the beta version of Dall-E 3.

Exciting New Chatbot Features

OpenAI’s incorporation of web browsing functionality empowers users with a useful tool for brainstorming ideas, comparing web pages, honing in on specific sources, highlighting key points, and both discovering alternative perspectives and effortlessly searching for videos.

The potential is even more significant for us, operating in the professional arenas of law, medicine, or consultancy in Mid-Michigan. Imagine quickly obtaining information pertinent to a case, patient, or project. The accelerated process of compiling relevant data equates to time saved, allowing us to serve our clients better and more efficiently.

Potential Caveats and Challenges

However, earlier versions of ChatGPT’s web browsing feature encountered a hiccup when users accessed paywalled content. OpenAI was quick to pull these versions to prevent any lapses of the digital rights management (DRM) system. This recent occurrence serves as a reminder to respect digital boundaries set by content creators.

Another crucial consideration is the quality and authenticity of the information that chatbots provide. With the perennial issue of disinformation and “fake news,” we must ensure that AI yields accurate, factual data. Critical evaluation of AI outputs keeps us in the safe waters of truth.

A Scale in Balance: Free-Access vs. Subscription

For professionals operating under strict B2B models or stringent budgets, free alternatives such as Microsoft Bing and Google Bard stand ready. It’s perfectly acceptable to opt for a no-cost option while gauging a service’s impact on your tasks and workflows. It’s all about working smarter, not harder.

Let us leverage these technological advancements competently and ethically for the benefit of us and our clients in our beloved Mid-Michigan towns. Remember, a tool is only as good as its operator’s intent and discretion.
