Mint Primer | An OpenAI search engine? Decoding the growing buzz

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has managed to keep the buzz going around the release of a generative pre-trained transformer -5 and a ChatGPT search engine by calling previous versions “dumb". But Altman has queered the pitch by posting that the demo will “.not gpt-5, not a search engine", but “.some new stuff we think people will love." If OpenAI releases a search engine, it will compete with not only Google but also with Microsoft’s Bing that is anyway powered by ChatGPT. This dependence demoralized Microsoft’s in-house AI team, according to Business Insider, prompting it to invest $16 million in French AI startup Mistral AI that rivals OpenAI.
