ChatGPT can access real-time data, but only for those with an active ChatGPT Plus subscription. This guide explains how to access real-time data with ChatGPT.

To use ChatGPT with real-time data, you’ll need a ChatGPT Plus subscription. That membership has a monthly fee, but gives you access to real-time web searches, custom GPTs, more daily messages, and access to new versions of the chatbot as they come out.

Go to the ChatGPT website and log in if necessary.

Start a conversation with ChatGPT and in the prompt ask for access to real-time data for his answer. You can ask him something that specifically requires a web search to find the answer, or just tell ChatGPT to "search the web" to find the information you're looking for.
