""We think that AI represents a rare, once-a-decade opportunity to re-think what a browser can be about," OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on a livestream to launch the browser. Atlas comes with ChatGPT baked in, and while it can navigate the web like traditional browsers, the company says it can do much more. A feature that OpenAI calls "agentic mode" can take action, like an agent who can shop for you, make reservations, or buy plane tickets."
""OpenAI has "kind of reached the limits of what data they can get just by hoovering up all of the content that's visible on the internet without consent," said Anil Dash, a tech entrepreneur and writer. But because Atlas is intertwined with ChatGPT, it absorbs much more user data than an ordinary browser does. The browser can interact with your email, for instance, or Google docs. It can keep so-called "browser memories" details from the sites you've visited so that OpenAI can better understand you.""
Atlas is a new web browser available on Apple computers for a limited time. Atlas integrates ChatGPT and provides standard web navigation plus advanced, action-oriented capabilities. An "agentic mode" can act autonomously to shop, make reservations, and purchase plane tickets. The browser can interpret content, such as reading a recipe, calculating ingredient quantities for diners, and buying those ingredients online. Large language models require vast quantities of data to improve, and Atlas's integration with ChatGPT gives it access to more user data than ordinary browsers. Atlas can interact with email and Google Docs and store "browser memories" from visited sites, creating privacy and data-collection concerns.
