No, OpenID has been replaced by OpenID Connect, a profile of OAuth 2.0 written to specifically address user sign in.
OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework, not an authentication protocol. OAuth 2.0 can be used for a lot of cool tasks, one of which is person authentication.
OpenID Connect is a “profile” of OAuth 2.0 specifically designed for attribute release and authentication.
