OpenAI reportedly plans to build a local web browser powered by artificial intelligence (AI). According to the report, AI companies are planning to use Google Chrome using their browser platform and start discussing their plans with multiple websites and app developers. AI companies also reportedly have discussed with Samsung to integrate its AI capabilities into the latter’s devices. In addition to the recently released search device features, these developments can also see Openai compete with Google in multiple aspects.
OpenAI reportedly plans to develop web browsers
A report in the information of people familiar with the matter revealed Openai’s plans. The publication says OpenAI plans to develop a native web browser that can be integrated with Chatgpt to provide users with an AI-powered experience.
OpenAI has reportedly spoken with several website and application developers, such as Condé Nast, Redfin, Eventbrite and Priceline to build web browsers. The discussion also reportedly included transactions that provide search capabilities for travel, food, real estate and retail sites. The latter is believed to be to expand the functionality of the search device.
Why OpenAI might consider developing its own web browser
The report also highlights two other reasons why AI companies are considering building browsers. First, Openai is said to want to control the main gateways that people use the Web to increase Chatgpt’s user base. Second, there are rumors that the company will soon release a feature called “operator”, an AI agent that can accomplish complex tasks on the network. The company does not want to rely on third-party browsers to grant permissions to AI agents.
Additionally, the publication claims Openai also discusses the possibility of powering AI capabilities on devices made by Samsung. The partnership offered is said to be similar to that with Apple. If the deal happens, the AI company will provide AI capabilities to two of the main competitors of the Google Pixel smartphone.
In addition, ChatGpt-Maker also uses search search to compete with Google in search engines. This feature is available within Chatgpt and highlighted by a Globe-shaped web icon. Once activated, the chatbot generates a response by purchasing directly from a website on the Internet rather than using its internal knowledge base.
