Change default search engine to ChatGPT search.
What is ChatGPT search?
"ChatGPT search" is a Chrome extension that allows users to set ChatGPT as their default search engine. It provides quick, timely answers and links to relevant web sources directly in the browser's URL bar, combining the advantages of a natural language interface with updated information on news, sports, and more. Users can still redirect queries to Google by typing "!g [your query]" in the URL bar. This feature is available to selected user groups, with broader rollout planned for all users.

This blends the benefits of a natural language interface with the value of up-to-date sports scores, news, stock quotes, and more. Chats also now include links to sources, such as news articles and blog posts, giving you a way to learn more.

This is something that I really want however it is done poorly I believe, either improve on all the functionalities that Google Search provides OR allow me to continue google searching. ChatGPT is not yet a drop in replacement for Google so please make it easy as possible to use the two side by side rather than completely overthrowing Google aim to be more productive and practical with the design.
