Is OpenAI's Atlas browser the Chrome killer we've been waiting for? Try it for yourself

"OpenAI has finally released its long-awaited AI browser: ChatGPT Atlas. On Tuesday morning, the company announced its then-forthcoming 10 a.m PT/1p.m. ET livestream with an X post depicting a series of browser tabs. The title of the livestream link gave it away before the announcement even dropped, though the browser had already been rumored for months. ChatGPT Atlas joins an increasingly crowded slate of AI browsers:"

"Atlas integrates ChatGPT with your every search and tab. No more copying and pasting between tabs -- if you turn it on, ChatGPT will be accessible on any page you have open in Atlas and will use the context of that page to answer queries. During the livestream, the OpenAI team described Atlas as an AI browser built around ChatGPT, the goal being to allow users to speak with their browser in a way traditional browsers don't offer."

"In a demo, OpenAI showed a few uses for this higher level of integration: you can edit an email using ChatGPT directly in your Gmail drafts (a direct punch at Google Gemini), have the chatbot summarize a Slack channel if you've been viewing it in the browser, or ask it to analyze your Github repo. Interface options Product Lead Adam Fry noted that Atlas "should feel very familiar" to other browsers in that it has your standard tabs, bookmarks, and password autofilling capabilities."

ChatGPT Atlas launches as an AI-focused browser available on macOS first, embedding ChatGPT across searches and open tabs. Users can access ChatGPT on any page via an "Ask ChatGPT" button and allow the model to use page context when answering. Demonstrated features include editing Gmail drafts, summarizing Slack channels, and analyzing GitHub repositories directly in the browser. Atlas aims to let users speak with their browser in conversational ways unlike traditional browsers. The interface retains standard browser elements such as tabs, bookmarks, and password autofill while positioning Atlas to compete with other AI browsers and Gemini-integrated Chrome.
