Public ChatGPT queries indexed by Google and other search engines

A Google spokesperson said that publishers of web pages have full control over whether they are indexed by search engines.

After creating a link, ChatGPT users could toggle whether or not they wanted that link to be discoverable.

OpenAI removed the feature from ChatGPT that allowed users to make their public conversations discoverable by search engines on July 31, 2025.
