The AI Beat: Why does OpenAI need a search engine?


Whatever happens, it's clear the era of outbound link-ranked web search ushered in by Google more than 25 years ago is rapidly changing.

If the reports and rumors are to be believed, OpenAI, maker of ChatGPT and the company that is arguably most responsible for ushering in the generative AI boom (in terms of investment dollars and product offerings) in Silicon Valley and worldwide, is preparing to launch a new AI-powered search engine as early as this coming Monday, May 13. Join us as we return to NYC on June 5th to engage with top executive leaders, delving into strategies for auditing AI models to ensure fairness, optimal performance, and ethical compliance across diverse organizations. That latter question is of course of special concern to publishers like us at VentureBeat, who rely heavily on Google Search referrals to get visitors and readers to our articles, as well as the accompanying advertising revenue we can generate from showing users ads directly on our site.
