OpenAI is developing an AI-powered web browser. It aims to rival Google Chrome. The browser will integrate ChatGPT-like features. This could change how users interact with the internet. It might also impact Alphabet's advertising revenue.

The browser is slated to launch in the coming weeks and aims to use artificial intelligence to fundamentally change how consumers browse the web.

A test of the app Dia illustrates that the humble web browser may be the path to making artificial intelligence more natural to use.

If OpenAI does start offering users access to its own browser, it would be following Perplexity, which released a browser with agentic AI functions on Wednesday. That browser, Comet, is currently only available to those with a $200 per month Perplexity Max subscription. Opera also released a "fully agentic" browser back in May.

If Chrome feels more like a chore than a choice, these Android browsers offer privacy, speed, and features people actually care about.

A new tool turns otherwise legitimate extensions for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox into bots that make your browser someone else's tool, and gets them paid in the process.
