Sam Altman denies reports of search engine launch before Google I/O

Altmann posted on that while an OpenAI announcement is scheduled for Monday morning, it’s “neither gpt-5 nor a search engine,” but regardless, he says it “feels like magic” . The only details provided by OpenAI’s official release are that the launch will feature updates to ChatGPT and its latest model, GPT-4.

The edge reported Monday that sources say OpenAI has been aggressively trying to recruit Google employees for a team working hard to ship the product soon, while Bloomberg And Information both spoke of a research product in development with no set launch date.
