Did they time it with the Gemini 2.5 launch? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43473489

Was it public information when Google was going to launch their new models? Interesting timing.

"Interesting timing" It's like the 4th time by my counting they've done this

OpenAI was started with the express goal of undermining Google's potential lead in AI. The fact that they time launches to Google launches to me indicates they still see this as a meaningful risk. And with this launch in particular I find their fears more well-founded than ever.
