The information states that after launching its search engine earlier this month, OpenAI is considering launching its own in-house browser. If this happens, OpenAI will be placed in direct competition with Google Chrome. The report also says that the OpenAI browser will combine with its chatbot to deliver more sophisticated answers and results. According to the report, the company has discussed its upcoming product with app developers and websites like Conde Nast, Redfin, Eventbrite, and Priceline, who may have previewed its prototype or design.

Launching the browser will boost the company’s reputation, especially since it is already a leader in artificial intelligence following the release of ChatGPT. Notably, the company has also entered the search market with SearchGPT, a feature available to premium users.

Although OpenAI’s Bowser is only in the planning stage, it’s in a good place right now. Since the upcoming browser will be in the race with Google Chrome, the current lawsuit is just icing on the cake. As part of efforts to end its dominance of Internet search, the US Justice Department has recommended significant changes to Google’s structure and operations, including the possible sale of its Chrome browser. These proposals follow an unprecedented court decision in August, where a federal judge determined that Google unlawfully maintained a monopoly on search services.

Google controls approximately 90 percent of the online search market and Chrome, a major means of bringing Google searches in front of Internet users, controls more than 50 percent of the U.S. browser market.

The DoJ said, “Google’s unlawful conduct has deprived competitors not only of critical distribution channels, but also of distribution partners that would otherwise enable competitors to enter these markets in new and innovative ways.” Could have.”

The ongoing lawsuit against Google is forcing it to sell Google Chrome, making this the biggest opportunity for OpenAI to make its move.

According to OpenAI, users can get fast, timely answers with links to relevant web sources that previously would have required you to go to a search engine. “It blends the benefits of a natural language interface with the value of the latest sports scores, news, stock quotes and more,” OpenAI said. ChatGPT will choose to search the web based on the request you made, or you can choose to search manually by clicking the web search icon.

This is currently available to all ChatGPT Plus and Teams users. OpenAI will also roll out this feature to all of its free users in the coming months.
