OpenAI's AI-powered browser, ChatGPT Atlas, launches on macOS today

OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, has launched a new AI-powered browser called ChatGPT Atlas, currently available for download on macOS. The browser integrates ChatGPT directly into the interface, allowing users to interact with the chatbot while surfing the web. The key features of ChatGPT Atlas include: - The ability to prompt ChatGPT from any text field, including in Gmail, to assist with tasks like email composition. - A sidebar that allows users to converse with ChatGPT at any time. - An "agent mode" that enables ChatGPT to perform web-based tasks like booking reservations or editing documents on the user's behalf. - Personalized search history and browsing data that ChatGPT can remember and utilize. OpenAI plans to bring ChatGPT Atlas to Windows, Android, and iOS platforms in the near future. The browser's launch comes amid growing competition in the AI-powered browser market, with companies like Opera and Perplexity also releasing similar products, and Google's plans to integrate its Gemini AI assistant into Chrome.
