Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, shot down rumors that the AI startup is developing a search engine or launching GPT-5. Instead, he confirmed that a May 13 event is scheduled to talk about “some new stuff” the company is working on. What Happened: Altman took to X, formerly Twitter, on Friday to downplay rumors of OpenAI launching a search engine to take on Alphabet Inc.’s Google. “Not GPT-5, not a search engine, but we’ve been hard at work on some new stuff we think people will love!
