I used to work as a UI/UX designer when we bought our, now late, grandmother an iPad Air 2 so she could "stay connected." This was around the iOS 8 era, and helping her through the setup process turned out to be an eye-opening experience for me – and for my then-profession:

"Yes, yes, darling, I see all these cryptic hieroglyphs [icons] – but I don’t know what they mean. Am I supposed to? Where can I look them up?"

That was a long day.

OpenAI also provides a Chrome Extension (https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/chatgpt-search/ejcf...) to trigger a search from the omnibar as the default search engine.

If you don't like that (like I do), you can also manually add it under Site Search using

I had a tour of Imagineering nearly a decade ago, and it was truly magical, leaving a lasting impression on me. It felt akin to what I imagine Xerox PARC or Bell Labs were like in their heydays.
