OpenAI is expected to launch a new AI-powered web browser in the coming weeks. According to Reuters, the company behind ChatGPT plans to compete with Google Chrome with this browser. This move comes shortly after Perplexity launched its own browser, Comet, highlighting OpenAI’s growing interest in this area.
The main feature of the new browser will be its ability to provide users with the information they need directly within ChatGPT, rather than redirecting them to external websites. This approach saves users time and makes web searching faster and more convenient.
Reports also indicate that OpenAI plans to integrate its web browsing AI agent called “Operator” into the browser. This feature enables ChatGPT to perform real-time internet searches and provide more comprehensive answers to user queries.
It is noted that OpenAI has been considering developing a platform to compete with powerful browsers like Google Chrome since 2024. Experts believe that OpenAI’s goal is to gain direct access to user behavior and search data in order to deliver more personalized and innovative experiences, without relying on intermediaries like Google.
Competition in the AI-powered browser market is rapidly increasing. OpenAI’s new product demonstrates that the company is not limiting itself to language models but is also focusing on developing technologies for everyday use. Although the exact launch date of the browser has not been announced, it is expected to be released within the next few weeks.
