As AI expands into the search world, here’s what the current players are up to

OpenAI and Google are expected to have major AI search announcements. But they’re not the only ones in the space.

The search engine market could be on the verge of a tidal shift. Reuters, last week, reported that OpenAI was planning to launch an artificial intelligence-powered search product as early as this week, putting it in direct competition with Google, but also with its close partner Microsoft. OpenAI has denied the details of that report, but didn’t completely reject the premise.
