Enterprises should not install OpenAI's new Atlas browser, analysts warn
"The browser would have more value if it included an on-device AI model that could run without requiring access to the internet, O'Donnell said. "This provides a channel through which they can get hundreds of millions of people to download their model," he said. In that scenario, the browser could access heavyweight AI models in the cloud to handle more demanding tasks."
"In that scenario, the browser could access heavyweight AI models in the cloud to handle more demanding tasks. Aside from Atlas, OpenAI is also building a productivity app to compete with Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, both of which are adding more AI features to Edge and Chrome, respectively. The could allow Atlas to serve as a conduit to deliver productivity apps to desktops- especially as browsers become the interface for corporate and consumer apps, Gold said."
A browser that includes an on-device AI model can run without internet access and increases its standalone utility. An on-device model provides a distribution channel to have hundreds of millions of users download the model. Browsers can fall back to heavyweight cloud AI models for more demanding tasks. OpenAI is developing a productivity app to compete with Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome are adding more AI features to their platforms. Atlas can serve as a conduit to deliver productivity apps to desktops as browsers become the interface for corporate and consumer applications.
