The recent developments in the AI sector have likely catalyzed the gains. Computers and IT technology company OpenAI is reportedly preparing to launch its own search engine on Monday, per a Reuters report, in a bid to compete with Google.

The report states that the target date is a day before Google kicks off its annual I/O conference, where the firm is expected to present its AI offerings Gemini and Gemma. Several sources have identified Monday as the target date for Open AI’s search feature’s debut.
