- Operai plans to launch a web browser with AI, claims the report
- It could get “in the coming weeks” and compete with Google Chrome
- This would give OpenAi access to extensive user data, says PakGazette
The Wars browser could be about to heat up, with the chatgpt openai manufacturer apparently ready to launch its own web browser in the coming weeks. According to PakGazette, that could exert significant pressure on Google Chrome and potentially “fundamentally change the way consumers sail on the web.”
Citing “three people familiar with the matter”, PakGazette reports that the browser will have an artificial intelligence chat interface (AI) that would maintain many user interactions inside the Chat window instead of linking to external websites.
In addition to that, the browser could integrate Openai’s agent, the bent operator, which would allow the application “to carry out tasks on the name of the user.” This could include “reservations of reservations or completing forms” on the websites you use.
The OpenAI browser is apparently built using Google open source chromium technology, which promotes Chrome, Edge and many of the other best web browsers. Openai’s product will be launched “in the coming weeks,” the reuters sources believe.
Analysis: The battle for your Goldmine data
Operai faces a tough competition in the world of browser. Google Chrome currently enjoys a dominant position, with approximately two thirds of the available market share.
The perplexity companies of the company of the Brave and the company of browsers have also launched their own IA browsers. Like Openai’s rumored effort, Perplexity’s browser can perform tasks in his name.
PakGazette suggests a clear reason for OpenAi: user data. Directing its own browser would allow the company to harvest as much information as possible of users, which could re -train their AI models and provide other monetization opportunities.
After all, Chrome “provides user information to help Alphabet Target ADS in a more effectively and profitable way, and also gives Google a way to enruta search traffic to their own engine by default,” says PakGazette. An Operai browser would give the company an equally powerful access route to lucrative data.
If your privacy worries you, then, Openai’s browser is likely to be calling alarms in the head. Operai has faced criticism for its data collection practices, as well as Google Chrome. As someone who has used Firefox for more than two decades, that has worried me.
When collecting the private data of users is an incentive to launch a browser, as PakGazette implies it could be, severe caution is recommended. We will have a clearer idea of all this when Openai’s web browser lashes at the end of this year, so keep your eyes wide open.
