Welcome to Issue #22 of One Minute AI, your daily AI news companion. This issue discusses a highly anticipated rumor surrounding OpenAI and Google.
OpenAI might launch a Google Search competitor soon
OpenAI is reportedly planning to announce an AI-powered search product on Monday, May 13th, just a day before Google's annual I/O conference. The new search offering could pose a major threat to Google's dominance in the search engine market. Reports suggest OpenAI's search will be integrated into ChatGPT and may utilize citations and data from Bing.
Google is clearly wary of the AI threat, with its search boss recently warning employees that the company needs to move quickly to counter new "gizmos" like AI search. OpenAI has allegedly been trying to poach Google employees to work on its search product. Other AI startups like Perplexity are also developing search capabilities powered by large language models.
An OpenAI search announcement on the eve of Google I/O would send a strong message, especially as ChatGPT has seen explosive growth. Google faces increasing competition in search as the AI race heats up, compounded by ongoing antitrust scrutiny over its search dominance.
