New AI browsers could usher in a web where agents do our bidding-eventually
"Using the internet with the help of an AI is a real thing-and it became even more real Tuesday when OpenAI, the generative AI industry's de facto avatar, announced the release of its new ChatGPT Atlas browser. A new race has begun to reinvent the Chrome-style browser experience we've used for so long: The race to reinvent the browser around natural language AI."
"Think of Atlas as an extended workspace and set of features around ChatGPT, specialized for fetching, parsing, and organizing web content. For months, I've been using the ChatGPT desktop app. I simply hit a keyboard shortcut, a small chat window appears toward the bottom of my screen, and I ask my question. When I click a source link within the answer, a new Chrome tab opens up behind the chat window."
OpenAI released ChatGPT Atlas, a browser that integrates natural-language AI into the browsing experience and initiates a race to reinvent the traditional Chrome-style browser. Atlas functions as an extended workspace around ChatGPT, fetching, parsing, and organizing web content while keeping the chatbot open alongside pages to answer questions without opening new tabs. Atlas can leverage memory of users' past browsing behavior to provide more thoughtful suggestions. The AI industry faces UX design challenges and a recent public conflict occurred between 'AI czar' David Sacks and billionaire Reid Hoffman on X.
