🥚 A neat trick to instantly switch between Google Search, ChatGPT, or Perplexity in your browser - (Search Hotkeys!)
Hi all! Me again with another shortcut I learned today 🙂
What are Search Hotkeys?
Let’s say I want to know the top 10 places to visit in korea:
without search hotkeys:
you first go to the ChatGPT website, or Perplexity website, then you type: “top 10 places korea”
with search hotkeys:
on your browser’s address bar, just type “C top 10 places korea” and it will automatically prompt ChatGPT with that query:
What just happened?
Basically I set up hotkeys for the chrome search bar to use my engine of choice based on what I need at that moment:
C will use ChatGPT
P will use Perplexity
B will use Bing Copilot
(and searching normally will use Google)
How do you do that?
In chrome settings, search “manage search engines” > then “add site search”
You set it up like below screenshot, then for the URL just copy these in:
ChatGPT - "https://chat.openai.com/chat?q=%s"
Perplexity - "https://www.perplexity.ai/search?q=%s"
Bing CoPilot - "https://www.bing.com/chat?sendquery=1&q=%s"
And that’s it! It’s quite a nice way to make working with multiple tools easier - so just thought to share. I’m thinking to share more bitesized tips on how we can all make AI work for us (instead of replacing us 😉)
Let me know if that’s a type of content you’d appreciate?
Stay crispy,
